Charlton Nesbit, on the expiration of his apprenticeship, came to London about 1799, and continued to reside there till 1815, when he returned to the north. In 1830 he returned to London about 1799, and continued to reside there till 1815, when he returned to the north. In 1830 he returned to London, where he remained to the time of his decease, which happened on the 11th November, 1838, in the sixty-third year of his age. In 1799 Nesbit engraved a large cut, containing a view of St. Nicholas' Church, Newcastle-on-Tyne, from a drawing by his fellow apprentice, Robert Johnson. For this cut, which is one of the largest that had ever been engraved in England, Nesbit received a medal from the Society for the Encouragement of Arts and Manufactures. Nesbit's best cuts are to be found in "Religious Emblems," published by R. Ackermann and Co., 1908; Savage's "Decorative Printing;" Northcote's "Fables," Second Series; and in the edition of White's "Selbourne," published by Baldwin and Cradock in 1834.
