John Letelier (Le Tellier / Le TeLier), Sr. and Jr.
Letelier Sr: Philadelphia, PA 1770-1790 and 1794; Wilmington, DE 1793-1794 and
1799-1800; Chester County, PA 1795-1798; Washington, DC c. 1802
Letelier Jr: Chester County, PA 1796-1798; Wilmington, DE 1799-1804;
Washington, DC 1804-1808; Richmond, VA 1808-1819
To differentiate between father and son is difficult, and they both used the same marks on their silver. It is
known that Letelier, Sr. began working in Philadelphia in 1770. It is believed Letelier, Jr. began working
alongside his father in Chester County, PA in about 1795. To date, experts have been unable to differentiate
silver made by the father and that made by the son.
