Hi Peter and Assembled Galooterii,

I don't know enough about saw making in the U.S. to be able to answer
your questions.  I can find very little information on Gregory & Co.
other than they were in business during the middle 1800's.  Only two
instances: they are mentioned very briefly in an 1855 diary entry from
an Iowa (midwestern) businessman, likely in the lumber & hardware
business, and are listed in the Transactions of the New York State
Agricultural Society for the same year, where it's noted that the
company received recognition for "superior workmanship" based on a
"case of saws."  This info comes simply from searching with Google on
the full name of the company.

I certainly would be interested to hear from anyone who might know
more about either my saw or the company, and who can answer Peter's
questions.

Regards,

Dwight
