The most scientific of early American clockmakers...
Connecticut. 18th Century
Most early Americans did not have watches-they depended on clock towers, often the tallest structures built near the town center... - SOLD
Jocelin, born at East Haven, Connecticut was self-taught although he may have served as apprentice to Isaac Doolittle at New Haven. Jocelin was considered a genius and skilled mathematician; it is know that he was consultant to Eli Whitney and a leading abolitionist. Jocelin made the steeple clock at Yale College...its whereabouts unknown; survivors considered to be the work of a genius with Jocelin the likely maker include town clocks at Madison and Branford, Connecticut, circa 1799 and 1804 respectively.
