Asa Sibley of Sutton, Massachusetts, Woodstock, Connecticut, Walpole, New Hampshire and Rochester, New York.

Asa Sibley, Clockmaker, and Silversmith was born in Sutton, Massachusetts, on March 29, 1764, and died on February 29, 1829. His parents were Col. Timothy Sibley and Anne Waite. Together, they had 15 children. Asa is thought to have trained with his older brother Timothy Jr who was born in 1754. Timothy Jr. is thought to have trained in the art of clockmaking with the Willard family in Grafton. Asa had a second brother that also worked in the clock trades. His name was Stephen who was born in 1757. Asa worked for a time in Norwich, Connecticut, and in 1782 moved to Great Barrington, Massachusetts. Asa moved to Woodstock, Connecticut, around 1785 and associated himself with Peregrine White (1747-1834), who also worked as a silversmith and a clockmaker in that town. He was active from 1774 to 1810. Asa married Irene Carpenter in 1787 (b. July 31, 1766, Woodstock, CT. Died October 5, 1846, in Rochester, NY). She was the daughter of the Norwich, Connecticut, clockmaker Joseph Carpenter. Asa then returned to Sutton from Woodstock for several years. After 1797, he moved his family to Walpole, New Hampshire, following the Windham clockmaker Gurdon Huntington. The two must have been well acquainted because Sibley administered Huntington's will in 1804. Asa is recorded as buying land in Walpole in 1797. He was active in town politics. He served as a selectman and town moderator between 1802 and 1807. Several land transactions are recorded. In 1808, they moved again to Rochester, New York, where he died in 1829. 

Currently, three clocks can be publicly viewed. The first is in the Sturbridge Village Collection. This clock features an inlaid cherry case. The engraved brass dial is signed with the place location of Walpole, NH. A second cherry-cased example is in the Mount Holyoke College of Art collection. This clock is also signed with the place location of Walpole (NH).
