History of the Bateman Family

Hester Bateman (1709-1794) handed over the family silversmithing business to her two sons Jonathan and Peter in 1790. Jonathan was married to Ann (1748-1813). When Jonathan died of cancer in 1791, he left his share to his widow Ann. Ann and her brother-in-law Peter entered their partnership mark in 1791. In 1800 Ann's son William (I), then joined the firm. Ann retired in 1805, leaving William and his uncle Peter, to continue the family business. This spoon is thus made by Hester Bateman's grandson, William and her son Peter in the year 1806.
