Henry Crimmel (February 14, 1844 – October 10, 1917) was an American glassmaker who became well known in Ohio and Indiana. A German that came with his family to America at the age of eight years, the American Civil War veteran started at the lowest level in glass making, and learned every aspect of the business.[1] A skilled glassblower known for his glassmaking expertise and the recipient of two patents, he also worked in management in at least three glass factories – and was one of the co-founders of the Novelty Glass Company (of Fostoria) and the reorganized version of Sneath Glass Company. He retired with over 50 years in the industry.

  1. ^ This information is from his front-page obituary in the Hartford City News - "H. Crimmel Drops Dead on Street". He was described as "prominent in the glass industry, and was well and favorably known throughout the country." Additional information can be found in the Twelfth Census of the United States (1900), which confirms that he entered the country in 1852 from Germany.
