My mother, who inherited the china, was told that the set belonged to Teddy Roosevelt's sister. We have no way of knowing which of his two sisters it may have belonged to.

www.mygrannysatticantiques.com/html/european_registration_marks_ta.html The mark indicates that the piece is old, if you went to the library and borrowed the "encyclopedia of Marks" you could identify the piece. The item about being owned by the POTUS family member is nice, but barring a photo of the person holding the item with the former POTUS meaningless in value.

This was made by T.G. & F. Booth, Church Bank Pottery, Tunstall, Staffordshire Potteries. They where in business from 1883-1891. They often included the pattern name shown here as "Dresden". There was a company named Dresden but this is not their mark. Date mark is May 8th 1883. And here it is: http://www.replacements.com/webquote/BOODRES.htm
