Woodwind manufacturers history

Author: Bill

Collecting vintage clarinets has fired up my interest in their makers. Does anyone know of any books or histories of woodwind manufacturers from the mid-nineteenth century through to the early twentieth century?

My particular interest is:

(1) Johann Michl (Graslitz) -- more likely a retailer (?) than manufacturer
(2) A. Lecomte (Paris)
(3) More about Kohlert (in their many locations)
(4) D. Noblet before Leblanc (and even after Leblanc)
(5) Leon Trotte of Mantes AND Paris
(6) Albert(s) of Brussels
