🥇 BANNER Class of 1878-79 tag ...wow

[Stoneworx]

I went to a home site that has been producing 1700 to late 1800s relics. I dug two eagle I buttons, two thimbles, a couple flat buttons and this tag that says scholarship miss lizzie wilson class of 1878-79. At first i thought it was a CW id tag. It's still very cool. Thanks for looking.

Very nice find and congrats on the Banner. Did you do any more research? You might try a local Historical Society or Recorder of Deeds. If it's a slow day and you take doughnuts the people there might help you. If the place next to that property is listed as L.Wilson it might be a family farm, or one that's been in the family a long time. Good luck.
