Topic: Leacock Township, Pennsylvania


  
  Leacock, John, American Philosophical Society
His father, also named John Leacock, was an established pewterer and merchant and a vestryman at Christ's Church, and his mother, Mary Cash (first cousin once removed of Deborah Read Franklin), was a sister of one of the founding members of the prestigious fishing club, the Colony in Schuylkill.
Leacock was probably apprenticed in his early teens to either a gold- or silversmith, possibly Philip Syng, but regardless of how he entered the trade, success came rapidly to him.
Although Leacock was no longer active as a silversmith during the period he kept this commonplace book, he maintained an interest in some aspects of the craft, particularly etching and engraving.
