First is a silver plated spoon found in my yard. Has a hall mark of "Thompson Winchester Boston"... yup

Next is a spoon/fork handle found in a field... Top reads "Wykagyl Pharmacy" with a hallmarh of "*BROKEN- CANT READ FIRST PART OF WORD*.or.............. MERCHENTS(?) P Co...... when i try to look it up it only gives me "PHARMACIES NEAR WYKAGYL NEW YORK"....

Finally is a bottle i bought today....very decorative.... reads "BURNS BEVERAGES"... Bottom says ogdensburg new york... :help: ?

Thompson Winchester of Boston, Mass, made specialty items for stores, restaurants, etc. They made specialty dinnerware, like cups, etc., and silverware.

It would be easier with a picture - does the spoon have a specific scene on it? Is the name on the bottom or the back of the handle?

Here is a semi-detailed drawing that should answer your questions....
