The Rochester Lamp Co. was
actually located in New York City. I'm treading on thinish ice here,
as I don't know much about the company. I don't know what the company
actually manufactured, if anything. Edw. Miller claimed that they
made the Rochester Lamp from 1884 on, after buying the original
patent of one Leonard Henkle from a somewhat notiorious broker named
Charles Upton. Upton is reputed to have also sold the same patent to
Bridgeport Brass, a Miller competitor.
I hope that there is
someone out there who can help with the parts! "Hens Teeth?" :: Fil
