“Gillinder & Sons was founded in 1861 by William Gillinder. It originally operated under the name of Franklin Flint Works. When William's sons, James and Frederic, joined the company in 1867, the name changed to Gillinder & Sons. The company endeared themselves to the public in 1876 when they built an exhibition glass factory on the fairgrounds of the American Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Here they demonstrated their glass making abilities and sold souvenirs to the visitors. In the early 1900s the company moved to Port Jervis, New York, where it operated as Gillinder Brothers. Today the Port Jervis factory is still family operated, doing business under the name Gillinder Glass. You can visit them online at www.gillinderglass.com.
