Wigzell, George
George Wigzell (1753 - December 12, 1833) was an English engraver active in London in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Wigzell was born in Greenwich to a poulterer. From 1769, he apprenticed under Joseph Ellis of the Stationer's Guild and joined the Guild in 1776. Wigzell engraved maps for Robert Sayer, Aaron Arrowsmith, John Stephenson, Laurie and Whittle, and others. His son, Thomas Wigzell (1791 - 1873), was also a map engraver.
