I have wonderful memories of visiting there. He never automated so fell behind the industrial revolution. He did though create the first marschallow chicks, rabbit, pumpkins and other creations that "Peeps" took credit for. Sam Born began his factory in 1917 in Brooklyn, whereas my grandfather Maxwell Knorpp was making them before 1910. IF you have any other knowledge of the factory I would love to know it. Wneh my grandfather became to old to run and manage it, he closed it. When he died my father sold it to a toy manufacturer for storage. A few yrs later there was a fire and it was destroyed. I've long since lost the newspaper accountof the fire. Anyway, thanks for the interesting site. Patricia J. Knorpp |

We were all cousins, some of the names are Joe Grier, Jerry Taliercio, Leonora Ervolino, just to mention a few. Most of us use to hang out at Liberty Park and we all went to St. Rita's. Would love to hear from some of the old crew and see what everyone is up to. Then moved on to Highland Park and eventually married Jamie Russo. Most of those people are long gone but if any of you are out there would love to hear from you. |
