• John_Jacob_Bausch abstract "John Jacob Bausch (July 25, 1830 – February 14, 1926) was a American maker of optical instruments who co-founded Bausch & Lomb (with Henry Lomb).Johan Jakob Bausch was born to Georg Bausch, a baker, and his wife Anna Schmid., in Groß Süßen (today part of Süßen) in Baden-Württemberg, Germany .At the age of eighteen he moved to Bern, Switzerland, where he found work in an optical shop designing camera lenses. After this brief apprenticeship he decided to set up his own business. The following year he emigrated to the United States. Upon his arrival , he settled in Rochester, New York and Anglicized his first name to John.In 1853, Bausch opened a retail optical shop in Rochester. Bausch sold spectacles, thermometers, field glasses, magnifiers and opera glasses. His friend Henry Lomb, also a German immigrant (from Burghaun, Hesse-Kassel (or Hesse-Cassel)), who had immigrated in 1849 invested his savings in Bausch's shop and in 1855 became his partner.While walking in a New York street, Bausch found a piece of Vulcanite Rubber. He took it back to his workshop and discovered he could make eyeglass frames from the material. At that time frames were mainly made from gold or European horn.In 1860, the Bausch & Lomb company built the first machine in America to produce spectacles. Lomb was in charge of sales and finance, while Bausch concentrated on the manufacturing side of the business.During the American Civil War, the blockade caused the price of gold and European horn to rise dramatically. This resulted in a growing demand for the Bausch & Lomb spectacles made from Vulcanite.In 1876, the company began manufacturing microscopes. Later that year the Bausch & Lomb Optical Company won a distinction at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. The company also produced photographic lenses (1883), spectacle lenses (1889), microtomes (1890), binoculars and telescopes (1893).Bausch's company did very well during the First World War as the war created a demand for binocular telescopes, searchlight mirrors, periscopes and torpedo tube sights.".
