DAWSON (JOHN), senior, printer in London, 1613-34; ? The Three Cranes in the Vintry. Son of Simon Dawson, of Manningtree, co. Essex, yeoman. Apprentice to Thomas Dawson the elder {- his uncle DAWSON, Thomas ( - 1620) ‹ LBT 07918 › } for seven years from January 31st, 1601/2: took up his freedom, February 6th, 1608/9 [Arber, ii. 260; iii.683]. Made his first book entry in the Registers on January 12th, 1613. On January 23rd, 1620/1, he petitioned Archbishop Abbot that he might be admitted a master printer, as a vacancy had occurred owing to the death of his uncle Thomas Dawson, senior [Arber, iii. 689]. This petition was granted. The last book entry under his name is found on January 22nd, 1633/4 [Arber, iv. 313], but the date of his death is uncertain. See Dawson (Mary) { DAWSON, Mary ‹ LBT 03112 › }.
