Neither that I know of. It was numbered and both were just beautiful in a very quiet way.

I have quite a few things that are that old from my family. My brother has the civil war musket.

I have 2 water pitchers blown glass from 1860. My grandmothers autograph book from 1890 (she was almost 50 when she had my mom).

And oh, how those people could write!

I have her wedding blouse as well.

I understand how you feel. Have items from Germany and England that go back several generations.
