Alexander Lodge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alexander Marshall Lodge (1881–1938) was an English inventor who did early work and held some patents on the spark plug. He and his brother Francis Brodie Lodge (1880–1967) founded a company, Lodge Brothers, in 1903 - which eventually, following a merger with the Mascot Company in 1913, was renamed Lodge Plugs Ltd; it was based in Rugby, Warwickshire. Much of their work was developed from research by their father, Sir Oliver Lodge.

Alec Lodge died on 17 February 1938, aged 56.
