Thomas Kefford

Thomas Kefford (baptised 18 March 1686, in Royston) (fl. 1710–1750), was a noted English clockmaker doing business at The Dial, Fore Street, Royston, Hertfordshire. Thomas was the son of Thomas Kefford (also a clockmaker) and Mary Fordham, and was one of 4 siblings baptised at Royston.[1]

Upon Kefford's death (or retirement) in about 1750, he was succeeded by Samuel Coxhall, who came from Shepreth, Cambridgeshire and had been apprenticed in June 1746, for 8 years and a fee of £21.[2][3]
