Re: Ringer family of Buffalo, NY
Chris Badger 7/13/03
I am seeking information on M.E. Ringer and S.D. Ringer who would have been in the Buffalo area in 1916. I recently acquired three EAPG luncheon plates with the above names and date etched on the rim. Buffalo, NY is etched in the center of the plates. The third plate has the name "Frances" etched on the rim with the date 1916 and Buffalo, NY in the center. I don't know if any of the Ringer family were involved with glassmaking and this is some pieces of their signed work or if the plates were meant to commemorate a special occasion. Any information on these names/history of the family would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
