Juckes, William

London; carver, gilder, glass grinder and picture frame maker (fl. 1802–35)

In 1802 Juckes was at 12 Giltspur Street.

On 24 July 1802 he purchased insurance cover of £500, of which £300 was in respect of utensils and stock. In October of the same year these figures were both revised upwards by £50 [The London Archives (TLA), Sun MS vol. 423, ref. 730147; vol. 424, ref. 735190].

At 111 Newgate Street from 1807, and also operating from this address in the same trade were Edward Juckes in 1817 and Elizabeth Juckes in 1820. There is a trade card, c. 1800 [Museum of London] of ‘JUCKES’, carver and gilder, with an address at 93 Fenchurch St. He described himself as ‘Carver, Gilder, Glass Grinder & Picture Frame Maker’.
