Dorothy Sarbitt

Evidence exists that she had by this time entered into a partnership with goldsmith Thomas Sarbitt; a mark from 1746-47 attests to this, as does another registered in 1748-49.

No record of her hallmark is known past 1754, indicating that she may have closed the business down in that year.
