Some history of Peacock and Hunt:
"John Hunt became partners with Peter L. Peacock who, like Hunt, had hailed from
Wayne County, North Carolina but had been living in Georgia
for a number of years before Hunt’s arrival in that state.In
1879 they started a new naval stores business in Savannah,
Georgia called “Peacock, Hunt & Company”. Their business
was very successful and they were regularly included in reports
that discussed the different companies who were producing large
yields of turpentine. The business was initially located on West
Bay Street near the Customs House but moved to different
storage facilities along the waterfront as their business grew.
Although the business that Peacock and Hunt had started was quite prosperous in Savannah, it did not stay
contained within Georgia state lines. On 3 May 1901, a massive fire broke out in Jacksonville, Florida, which
burned over twenty city blocks and destroyed most of the business district along the waterfront by the St. John’s
River. Many turpentine companies in that section of the city went up in flames and perhaps Peacock and Hunt saw
an opportunity to expand their business literally from the ground up.
The city of Jacksonville began to rebuild immediately after the flames of the great fire had subsided. One of the
largest structures to be erected during that time was the “West Building”, built by Peacock and Hunt’s new partner,
John W. West, whose primary business was in lumber. In July 1901 on the corner of West Bay and South Laura
Street, the foundation for a 5-story brick building was poured and by 1902, the “Peacock, Hunt & West Company”
naval stores commissary was in full operation."
The dates mentioned above will give you a range of years that Peacock, Hunt and Co. were the sole partners--and the date range of your trade token.
