DAWSON (THOMAS), senior, printer in London, 1568-1620; The Three Cranes in the Vintry. Thomas Dawson was apprenticed to Richard Jugge { JUGGE, Richard ( - 1577) ‹ LBT 07912 › }, printer, for eight years from the year 1559, and took up his freedom on February 18th, 1567/8 [Arber, i. 120, 366]. At the outset of his career he appears to have been in partnership with Thomas Gardiner { GARDENER, Thomas ( - 1579) ‹ LBT 08729 › }, their first book entry appearing on November 2nd, 1576. Thomas Dawson was, however, chiefly a trade printer and his business appears to have been a large one. In 1578 Richard Schilders { SHELDER, Richard ( - 1634) ‹ LBT 08429 › }, the alien printer, was compelled to transfer a book he was then printing for Hans Stell to Thomas Dawson, and to work for him for wages until it was complete. The book is believed to have been The Bee Hive of the Romish Church, 1579 [Arber, ii. 882]. In the return made to the Bishop of London in May, 1583, he is entered as having three presses. He rose from Renter of the Company in 1591-2 to the Mastership in the years 1609 and 1615 [Arber, v. lxiii]. He died in the year 1620, and was succeeded in the business by his nephew, John Dawson { DAWSON, John ( - 1635) ‹ LBT 07296 › }.
