Robin,
Camera installed correctly shows up on device manager under USB.
Tried reinstalling old driver as per Atik website instructions.
Camera still not connecting.

Andrew,
Yes I have but will revisit.
Atik works with other computers could be a software problem.

I would describe it as purple.
I don’t know if the other 2 telescopes show a shield/crest.
I have already corresponded with Jill Campbell, unfortunately she does not know anything about the origin of the telescope, how or when it got into the families possession.

To the best of my knowledge Theodorus made the telescope.
I don’t know about the artwork.
Notice the coat of arms above his signature what does that tell us ?

Definitely worthy of further research.
If Theodore was born in 1616, what was the life expectancy, when did he die, where is he buried, in a Church in Holborn possibly.
The links to Francis Godwin and Jonathan Swift are intriguing.
Thanks for your efforts,

Australia,
Seems there was a 5th (first) child born 3 years after they were married, unusual as children are usually born soon after marriage.
Blethyn’s telescope is signed ‘Theodorus Blethyn fecit’, so that’s how he spelt his surname.
What is IGI ?
Thank you for all the information you have provided.

I have searched for the name Philemon in the index, can’t see an entry, perhaps I’ve missed something !
