Subject: Mary B Gaston From: vriddle Date: September 04, 2000 I recently found a beautiful old walnut victorian rocker that someone had put on the trashpile. Under four layers of old upholstery material, I discovered a small piece of paper. The paper is glued on the chair and says, "Purchased in Charleston by Mary B Gaston for Cedar Shoals Plantation." The chair has the Roman numeral VII and the letter "W" carved underneath. I am looking for any information on Mary B Gaston and/or Cedar Shoals Plantation. Also, if anyone can shed any light on the carving of the Roman numeral on the furniture, I would appreciate your comments. Thanks. ==== SCROOTS Mailing List ==== Go To: #, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, Main |
