'The men who founded the modern glass industry in Weston are seen in this old photo, loaned to us by Mat Holt. Front row, left to right, Frank Model, Henry Model, Elglebert Hager, Louie Wohinc, Mr. Lawrence, Karl Wohinc, and Louie Schrader. Second row, left to right, Henry Tomasche, John Pertz, Godfrey Weber, Dr. M.S. Holt, Joe Hager, Rudolph Bauer, and Frank Lanhanse. Third row, left to right, John Weber, Jumbo Ransinger, Ed Bascisko, and August 'Gus' Weber. Most of these men were employed in the glass factory at Tennerton.

Dr. Holt, who was the physician to most of the families, bought for them the old bottle plant for about $15,000. He was the only stockholder who was not a worker in the plant. Mr. Lawrence was the office manager and bookkeeper. The factory was organized with a $50,000 capital. Elglebert Hagar was the first president and general manager.'
