"6th February 1748. 'Son of James Gordon, merchant in Gartmouth ; booked apprentice to Patrick Gordon...'

'...The opening minute in above shows that this was a son of the 'executor' of Patrick Gordon's will, and although the designation of his location is slightly spelt different, it is clear that it is the same individual. What relation he was to the two clockmakers is uncertain, but all information seems to point that he was another brother, which surmise, if correct, made this Thomas Gordon a nephew.' "
