During this time Elias designed the Gothic clock case, with four columns. The E. and A. Ingrahams Company was then started and ran from 1852 to 1856; and then Elias Ingraham and Company from 1857 to 1860. Then from 1861 to 1880 the name E. Ingraham& Company was used.

Welch(1809x1887) had been making clocks at a factory site on East Main Street at Forestville, Conn. since taking over the bankrupt business of J. C. Brown about 1856. A new movement shop was fitted up in 1869. Adding to the two factories already in use by the firm. Between 1868 and 1884, a subsidiary firm called Welch, Spring& Company was formed to produce a more expensive line of clocks. This firm will be spoken of in more detail elsewhere. The Welch firm was well known for its handsome rosewood cases, though in 1885, with changing styles in furniture, the surviving firm began to introduce new models with solid walnut cases and discontinued some of the older rosewood veneered cases. Elisha Welch was enamored of a lovely(but very liberal-thinking) diva of the day from Spain by the name of Adelina Patti. He named perhaps his best quality movement after her. Called the“Patti” movement. Clocks with this movement are highly sought by serious collectors. After the death of Elisha Welch in 1887.

Ansonia Clock Co. was one. And Ansonia Brass& Clock Co. was the other; both marked"Ansonia. Conn. It seems they used aggressive sales promotion methods, working on the premise that the more clocks made and sold, the more brass they would use.
