After Maker/retailer Info: 1822/45 Pattern Sabre by Manders & Allender Liverpool

Bit late for me but something about this one appealed to me.
Can anyone help with info on the maker?
I think this sword is the later 1845 Wilkinson type fullered blade version of the 1822, Infantry officers?
Blade etched: Manders & Allender Liverpool, Spine is stamped '502'.
I've not heard fo the maker before and a search isn't seeming to turn up much info.
Hoping the 502 might be tracable as well, hoping to definatively date the sword.

Thanks
Gene.
