"US" bridle piece and Indiana Stove works information needed, please!
These pieces were found at another old foundation site here in Oklahoma. The first piece says "Indiana Stove Works" and I think is the burner cover(?) for a cooking stove, but I can't find much information on it. Can anyone tell me when the stove was manufactured?
The second piece is brass with three little prongs on the back and says "US" on the front. It measures about 1 1/4" across. Was this a military bridle piece and how old is it?
Thanks for any help or information! regards, sandcreek4

I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines. I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

I believe the "US" rosette is the type used on late 1800's - early 1900's cavalry blinders.
I found references to the Indiana Stove Works of Evansville, Indiana as early as 1889 and as late as 1931. Here's a postcard view of the factory:

Or is this one of the same?
Otherwise, I shall search and advise
