1875 stoneware bottle

[mojjax]

As you can see in the pic the color ran down before it was fired - blocking out a letter . I think it says WHEATON . All I get in Google are glass bottles . Any info?

thanks,

What is the first name?

It appears to be "HIRAM":




Presumably this would be related to the firm of Hiram Wheaton & Sons of New Bedford, MA.

By PM, I think I've put you on to the great grand daugher of Hiram Wheaton, an avid collector of the family's production. Let us know.

WOW! That is one nice older piece of stoneware you have there. I love the blue colored top. Very nice. Congratulations.
