Help IDing old bottles

[nathan104]

Let me start off by saying I do not know anything about bottles. I have these three Id like some help with.

The first one is a 1 Gallon Glass jug with one handle shown here.

It has a seam on each side and has "One Gallon" marked on each side. Here is a picture of the bottom which is marked with what looks like a G above an e, not sure though

The second bottle is a large water jug type bottle. It is marked on the bottom with a "I" stamped inside an "O" has a "7" stamped to the right of it, a "60" stamped to the right of it, and a "10" stamped below it. Im just guessing that the bottle was made in July 1960 and is 10 gallons? I looked up the maker mark and it shows that it was in use from the late 50's to present.

The last bottle is bigger than the gallon jug and has two handles. The bottom is studded with a big X. In the bottom of the X is stamped "UGB", on the right of the X is stamped "2", to the left of the X is a "-", and on the top of the X is stamped " X690".

Any help with dating, what they may have contained or estimated values would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
