Gleaner Manufacturing Company

Nothing is handwritten on the photo. However, the photo shows a "Gleaner" combine with the name "Baldwin" on it. The Baldwin brothers from Kansas decided to use the term gleaner for their self-propelled harvesting machine. The brothers' company went into bankruptcy in the 1930's and was taken over by William James Brace, who brought the company back. In 1955, Allis-chalmers purchased Gleaner.

My life-time love of geneology and old photos led to the concept of Ancientfaces back in 1999....through the site I have made contact with previously unknown cousins in Australia, Tasmania, England, Scotland and various states in the US, broadening and enriching my family stories, photos and family relationships. The names I am researching resided in and/or settled the following areas: South Wales; Scotland; Northern Ireland; Normandy; Germany, Belgium & the Netherlands; Virginia; West Virginia, Kentucky, Kansas, Idaho and Washington state; first wave of settlers in the Hudson River & Mohawk River Vallies; founding fathers of New Haven, Middlesex and New London Counties, CT, along with Suffolk, Norfolk & Middlesex Counties in MA; first wave of settlers to Quebec and Ontario, Canada. Also, I am a member of the Mayflower Society after tracing my maternal side to John Billington, a Mayflower passenger ( with his family) who settled in Plymouth , and signed, the Mayflower compact.
