Artist Biography:
Son of Thomas Bache of Avely (?) Salop yeoman, apprenticed to William Harrison 28 February 1673. Free, 5 March 1680. Court, 1703. Warden, 1718, 1722-3. Prime Warden, 1726. His first wife Margarett buried at St. Mary Woolnoth, 11 September 1682, when he is described as Silversmith; their son John baptized 5 June 1681. Married secondly June 1683, at St. Mary Woolnoth, Suzanna Moore, when he is described as silversmith and both of that parish. Three sons and four daughters of this marriage baptized between 1684 and 1701, and an apprentice George Chapman buried 1687, when Bache is variously goldsmith or silversmith. First mark entered as largeworker in partnership with William Denny (also apprenticed to William Harrison, q.v.), undated, probably 1697. Second mark alone as largeworker, 1 November 1700, and third (Sterling) mark, 20 June 1720, without address for either. Heal records him as working goldsmith, parish of St. Mary Woolnoth, 1688-1701; and plateworker, Dove Court, Lombard Street, 1700-29, with Denny and Bache at same address. In the church registers the spelling of the name varies between Bache, Backe, and Batch.
