History

It is commonly believed that the Pfaltzgraff company was founded in 1811 in York County, Pennsylvania.[1] It was founded by several members of the Pfaltzgraff family who were potters, the most notable of whom was Johann George Pfaltzgraff. Johann, having come from a family of potters, knew the trade, and passed his skills on to his 7 sons. After Johann died in the late 19th century, three of his children, John, George, and Henry, were still carrying on the business. The business became official in 1889 when George and Henry started a partnership that would become The Pfaltzgraff Co. The first factory was built in 1895.
