My Grandmother found this clock in Wisconsin, during the depression. It has been in the family since. I can't find any information as to when it was made, would love to know more about it.

This style is referred to as a "Mission Wall Clock". It's characterized by straight, simple lines of construction. Usually made of oak and popular during the first 20-20 years of the 20th century. Modern reproductions are still available today. For a very informative and concise history of the Ingraham Clock Co. see the Collectors Weekly article at: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/clocks/ingraham
Thanks for sharing your heirloom with us.
Note: "20-20 years" above should read "10-20 years"
