Hello all: I have reason to believe that my mother, who is now deceased, sold some of our family heirlooms, probably 7 - 10 years ago, including a Seth Thomas mantle clock and some jewelry, to a store called Gems N Junk that was located in Cassadaga and/or Dunkirk/Fredonia. I don't believe the store exists anymore and the proprietor that my mother sold the items to is now deceased. Any chance that anyone knows what might have happened to the store? Was it sold to someone else, by chance? I live out of state, so it's difficult for me to find out. And I know this is an enormous long shot, but I'd love to find these items and buy them back.
