:''This article is about glass manufacturer Astley Pellatt (1763–1826). For his son, Apsley Pellatt (1791–1863), see Apsley Pellatt. Apsley Pellatt, (1763 – Jan 21, 1826) was an English glass manufacturer. Apsley Pellatt was the son of Apsley Pellatt (1736–1798) and Sarah (née Meriton) Pellatt. At St Andrews church, Holborn on Mar 20, 1788 he married Mary Maberly, daughter of prosperous manufacturer Stephen Maberly and sister of John Maberly. They had 15 children, of which Apsley Pellatt was the eldest son. Sometime around 1790 he bought the Falcon Glass House in Blackfriars, London which had been making glass since 1693. In 1807 〔http://www.glassian.org/Prism/Patent/GB18073058/page2.html〕 he took out a patent for the manufacture of lights (round lens-shaped windows like portholes) to allow natural light to illuminate the interiors of dark rooms, especially the holds of ships. His eldest son, also called Apsley, joined the business in 1811 and took it over completely on Apsley Snr's death in 1826, renaming it Apsley Pellatt & Co. A younger son, Frederic, also joined the company in due course. Apsley Snr was buried with his wife in the Cribbe family vault in Bunhill Fields, London. == References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Apsley Pellatt (1763–1826)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
