We are in possession of an antique chain driven pocket watch
( still in working order) which is wound by using 3 small
keys attached to the watch chain. The watch has been in the
family for over 100 years. On the inside of the case, there
is stamped work consisting of a side profile of a lion on
top with a family crest type shield below and to the left of
the lion and a capital letter " L " to the lower right of
the lion. There are the capital letters T C stamped directly
below the lion. Any information as to who we could contact
to determine the manufacture and date it was made would be
helpful. Thank you. Grant Barrows.
