The
Daublaine
company
was
founded
in
1830-1831
by
the
Abt
Jean-Louis
Cabias
(1793-??).
In
1834
André
Marie
Daublaine
(an
engineer)
joined
as
co-founder
and
Marie
Antoine
Louis
Suret
(1807-1876)
became
foreman.
In
1838
the firm merged with the firm of Louis Callinet (1786-1846).
Louis
Callinet
(1786-1846)
was
a
pupil
and
cousin
of
Francois
Callinet
and
came
to
Paris
in
1806.
He
worked
with
Pierre-François
Dallery
and
in
1821
he
associated
himself
with
Jean-Antoine
Somer
(until
the
death
of
the
latter
in
1830).
Facing
serious
financial
difficulties,
he
sold
his
company
in
1838
to
Daublaine.
Louis
Callinet
left
this
company
in
1844
because
of
a
dramatic
event
(in
a
moment
of
madness
he
devastated
the
organ
of
St.
Sulpice,
of
which
he
undertook
the
restoration
almost
ten
years
earlier)
and
he ended his carrier by working as a laborer at Cavaillé-Coll.
Félix
Danjou
(1812-1866)
became
commercial
director
of
the
Daubaline-Callinet
firm
in
1839;
in
1841
Charles
Spackman
Barker
(1806-1879)
became
director
of
operations.
Due
to
the
dramatic
events
in
Saint-Sulpice
(see
above)
and
Saint-Eustache
(this
organ
was
destructed
by
a
fire
caused
by
Barker
himself),
the
company
was
liquidated
in
1845
and
taken
over
by
Pierre
Alexandre
Ducroquet
(1798-1877),
who
employed
Barker
again.
In
1855,
the
company was bought by
Joseph Merklin
.
Daublaine-Callinet was the leading organbuilder during 1835-
1840; Cavaillé-Coll and Merklin took over this role after 1840.
