Found this cool spoon at historic home in NY - engraved with New High School in Washington state - already reached out to school and sent photos see what they say. I see school founded in 1899 so possible this was 100 year anniversary of his death in1799 if tHis was made year school opened...

That's a pretty interesting find. Those engraved spoons are nice. I found one once. Can't remember what it was but certainly not as cool as that one. Congrats!
