Can you provide links regarding the History of the Tape measure?

I already have
http://www.todayinsci.com/cgi-bin/indexpage.pl?http://www.todayinsci.com/F/Fellows_Alvin/FellowsTapeMeasurePatent.htm

And the wic-o-pedia http that led me to the above patent application by Alvin J. Fellows in 1868.

Specifically links about prior models of spring loaded tape measures.

Thanks

You could look for 'chain' or 'engineers chain' for the prehistory?
