George Adams was the principal scientific instrument maker in the mid-eighteenth century. In 1756, he was appointed instrument maker to the Prince of Wales, the future George III, a post he continued to occupy when George became king in 1760. Adams supplied the king with many pieces of mathematical and scientific equipment, much of which is now part of the George III collection in the Science Museum in London.
