Adrianus Halder was born to Jacobus Halder and Henderijina Haal in Delft in circa 1715. Elisabeth van Leeuwen was his third wife, his first being Elisabeth van Gorp who died in 1753, just a year after they married, and his second being Margaretha van Rheenen. Together with Margaretha he had fathered Jacobus Adriaens Halder, who was the owner of De Grieksche A (The Greek A) factory in the centre of Delft from 1764 to 1768. A glass signed by Jacob Sang which is engraved in a similar style is illustrated by Pieter C Ritsema van Eck, Glass in the Rijksmuseum, Vol.2 (1995), pp.202-3, no.214.
