Great find !!
Some history:
The story of Ingram’s Milk Weed Cream product begins with Frederick Ingram, born on May 9, 1856 in Hastings, Michigan. Ingram was educated at Hastings High School and later at Olivet College, although his education was cut short by illness. In 1889, he married Laura A. Mayo. Frederick began his career in retail drugs in Ypsilanti, Michigan and traveled for a pharmaceutical company for several years before becoming partners with the pharmacist manufacturing firm of Milburn and Williamson of Detroit on January 1, 1885. Milburn later retired and the company was changed to Williamson, Ingram and Griggs. In 1891, Ingram bought out Williamson and Griggs and formed Frederick F. Ingram and Company. The company incorporated in 1908 and was later purchased by Bristol Myers in 1928. "
