When was James Watson using this mark???

Post by Meridian_Mike »

Hello...
According to what I can find, James Watson was in business with Mr Hildeburn in 2 (different) partnerships....
One was Hildeburn & Watson from 1830 to 1833 and the other was Watson & Hildeburn from 1839 to 1849.
SO, could we figure this mark was for James Watson from 1833 to 1839 maybe?
Maybe the style of his spoon would tell more. Any help is appreciated.

I believe that similar marks to yours on these spoons were used by others in the time frame you are suggesting.
