Born in Wolcott, CT in 1785. Seth Thomas started in the clock business in 1807, working for a clock maker by the name of Eli Terry. Seth Thomas bought Eli’s clock business in 1810 but sold his partnership and moved to Plymouth Hollow, CT in 1812 to start a factory to manufacture metal movement clocks. After the death of Thomas in 1859 Plymouth Hollow was renamed to Thomaston in honor of Seth Thomas in 1875.

The Seth Thomas Clock Company was officially incorporated in 1853. Seth Thomas produces many styles of clocks such as mantel clocks, wall clocks, table top clocks, indoor outdoor clocks, anniversary clocks, furniture clocks and home decor themed clocks.
Many vintage Seth Thomas clocks are available online and are valuable keepsakes or family heirlooms.
