Early American Ladder Back Rocking Chair

I was rocked in this chair as a baby in the mid 1960's and my mother remembers this chair form her childhood in the 1930's. She says her father remembered it from his childhood in the early 1910's and that it had come from a neighbors home and that they had brought it over from Europe. The last part we question but I would love to know more about this rocker, so if anyone has any ideas about it's origin, who made it, and the etching you would be greatly helping solve a life long mystery
