HISTORY AND MARKS
David Hotchkiss (1796-1874) was a silversmith active in Palmira (New York) c. 1840.
From 1854 to 1857 Hotchkiss was partner in Syracuse NY of Norton, Seymour & Co with Benjamin R. Norton and Joseph Seymour.
In 1853 Andrew B. Schreuder entered in partnership with Francis A, Bunnelle as Bunnelle & Schreuder, manufacturers of solid silver flatware.
In 1857 David Hotchkiss and Andrew B. Schreuder created a new partnership Hotchkiss & Schreuder, silver wholesale manufacturers at 95 Genesee Street, Syracuse, NY continuing the production of some of the patterns manufactured by Bunnelle & Schreuder. The partnership lasted until 1871 and Andrew B. Schreuder continued in business alone.
In 1895 the business was sold to Syracuse Silver Manufacturing Co, an organization formed by the partners of A. Lesser's Sons, whoìesale jewelers, for the manufacture of sterling silver novelties.
In 1897 was formed Lesser & Rheinauer. The business was closed in 1898.
