A year or so ago I posted a mystery about a car I once had. It was finally ID'ed. (If I remember correctly PBK id'd it.) For those of you who like a good brain teaser
here is one. For the correct guess, i will give an Indian head penny and a mercury dime.
Who did this belong to? You may ask questions.. I encourage that.
Clue #1 They are sugar bowls.
Clue # 2 A town was named after him.
Solved...Charles Washington, Georges younger brother.

I cant tell in the pic. Is it a C or a G in the monogram?
Don't want to be a meanie, but at this point, it's your interpretation.
I was going to ask for another pic, but I think I see it clearer in the second bowl. ;D meanie. :D :wink: :wink:

In the Louisiana History Museum. Your interpretation on the initials at this point.

I have 2 distinct questions:

1. Is it waterford crystal?

2. Was it owned by George and William Penrose?
