Congratualtions on the old relic! :occasion14:
 

I really dont think its a suspender clip. It has a persons name on it for the first thing. Also it looks like it use to be some sort of pin/name tag. Look at the pics again.
 

Sawyer Judson lived in Ohio and fought in the Civil War. So i am wondering if it was his or if it is just a coincidence.
 

Very nice save! Collectable in your collection - someday a display :)
 

Hi, nice old relic find:icon_thumright:
 

"...I really dont think its a suspender clip..."

Oh, it is a suspender clip.

It was named after the guy, like Levi Strauss, all those jeans didn't actually belong to Levi. It's a brand name.

It has a couple of pieces missing, the hook and cross bar are gone. Here is a picture of a bunch of them, Google images can be used to dispel your lingering doubts, sir.

Best of luck to you.

Nice looking suspender clip. Since you found a lot of them, you could make a real nice display case.
 

Got your answer.:icon_thumright:
 

Being from Ohio, everyone back in the days was named the same. There was a lot of intermarriage and such. Normally when you find a name it is a makers mark. You have found a piece of history and that i great. If you look far enough back in your faily tree you will see a lot of the same names and such.
 

Hahahaha!! Welcome to Tnet!
