So far all I have found is he is listed in "Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World" by Loomes as a watchmaker London (Charing Cross) 1804-1824

Could you post a photo of the dial, unusual I think for an English watch to be dial side winding, most like that were French. At least in my limited knowledge of these things.
