My museum has a silver lady's watch, probably from the 1880s, marked DMF & Co.

Any idea who that is? It was given to us years ago thinking it was from a Newark watchcase maker, but that doesn't seem to be true, and I've not been able to dig up a likely candidate.

Does anybody have a copy of Rainwater's American Jewelry Manufacturers book handy? It might be worth a look there. My copy is in storage.

I have not been able to find those initials anywhere in Rainwater's jewelry book.
