Francis Pellegrino was an Italian immigrant barometer maker active in London circa 1790-1800. He was among the early Italian craftsmen in this field. His work is relatively rare, with few surviving examples. A barometer and its dial made by Pellegrino are illustrated in Nicolas Goodison's English Barometers, 1680-1860 (p. 94).
