Partial Maker Mark "G BUS..."

Post by biztekpc »

I bought a box of flatware at an auction last Sunday. I have not been able to identify this spoon. The spoon only has a partial maker mark of "G BUS___". Also marked STANDARD. Any help?

Thank you very much. I don't see the image but the info sent me in the right direction. George Bush was apparently noted as a clockmaker more than a silversmith. Also, it appears that George Bush the clockmaker was an ancestor to George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush.

Maybe not on the ancestry to the presidents. I think I got bad info on that.
