Yesterday, I had a play day so I decided to go back to a site that I had found in the Jersey Pine Barrens the other day. The ground here is mild soft sugar sand so the coppers usually come out decent. This may have been a small military site as I found what looks like a bayonet tip, a pocket knife, and a gaming piece.
The clothier's bag seal that I found the other day was made by Richard & John Milnes(J spelled with an i ) & Co. Wakefield was made between 1695 and 1755. I reached out to author and historian Paul Lindsay Dawson of Wakefield England. John Milnes of Richard & John Milnes & Co. had a son named Robert Shore Milnes.
Sir ROBERT SHORE MILNES Lieutenant Governor of Lower Canada from 1799 to 1805 .
Sir Robert Shore Milnes, 1st Baronet (Wakefield, York, England; January 1, 1754-Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England; December 2, 1837) was Lieutenant Governor of Lower Canada from 1799 to 1805.
Robert Shore Milnes was the first child in order of birth and 2 of his brothers died in their youth.
He married Charlotte Francisca Bentinck (May 28, 1768-1850) on November 12, 1785 in Chertsey, Surrey, England and together they had 6 children: John Bentinch Milnes (September 13, 1786-1839), William Henry Milnes (March 8, 1788-1815), Arthur Milnes (1792-?), Henry Banks Oldenburg Milnes (October 17, 1790 - August 21, 1813 ), Charlotte Harriet Martinique Milnes (June 23, 1798-?) and Sophia Mary Anne Milnes (October 9, 1799-?).
