The name Potter first appears in the Town Book in an indenture dated May 1699 under which Baldwin Potter agreed to take William Flemming of Cornegary (?) as an apprentice to be taught the ‘science, trade and craft of clockmaker’ including the craft of ‘smith’ (silversmith).
Potter may have been a soldier in the Williamite army and may have learned these trades while serving there.
