Thomas Clark was born in 1799 and served an apprenticeship with David Brown of Edinburgh, and spent some years with the London law bookseller, Joseph Butterworth of Fleet Street, before starting as a law bookseller in Edinburgh in 1821. About 1830 the firm began to tend towards theological publishing, without abandoning law publishing altogether. Indeed the firm started to publish the monthly Law Chronicle in 1829, however it was not greatly successful, and was discontinued within five years. In 1846 the founder's nephew, another Thomas Clark (1823-1900) joined the firm, and it became T. & T. Clark. The elder Thomas Clark died at Blairgowrie 22 December 1865. The younger Thomas Clark was made a baronet in 1886. Many of the firms records are held by the National Library of Scotland (Deposits 247 and 342 and Accessions 10689, 10785 and 11268).
