The people of the 1800s utilized these stone vessels to store various liquids such as ink, preserves, paste, beer, medicine, varnish, and so on. Compared to glass at the time, stoneware products were economically practical. The company that produced this bottle was named after Joseph Bourne who officially founded the company in 1809 and it continued to manufacture stone bottles until 1976. Joseph’s father William was a potter as well as who, on the horizon of the Industrial Revolution, foresaw the benefits of leasing a large clay bed near Derby which was then passed onto his son. The modest singular kiln company grew steadily over the years. Joseph Bourne’s pottery in Derbyshire England made large quantities of these bottles. For many years P. & J. Arnold of London used Bourne vessels for his ink products. For many years, P. & J. Arnold of London used bourne vessels for his ink products. These ink products, and Joseph Bourne’s containers were heavily imported to the U.S. by the mid 19th century, which could account for this artifact being found along the Passaic River in New Jersey. If there were factories in this area, records would have to be kept and ink to write them in. Bourne’s bottles were not expensive during this time period, unlike glass, and with their thriving factory during the Industrial Revolution it is doubtless their exports reached the ports of New Jersey and New York (New Amsterdam). \r\n"]]]]]],["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"5"},["name","IIIF Item Metadata"],["description"],["elementContainer",["element",{"elementId":"65"},["name","UUID"],["description"],["elementTextContainer",["elementText",{"elementTextId":"3095"},["text","e5a3dd49-9015-46c8-89c1-153b9ba266eb"]]]]]]],["tagContainer",["tag",{"tagId":"9"},["name","toexport"]]]],["item",{"itemId":"702","public":"1","featured":"0"},["fileContainer",["file",{"fileId":"2459"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/f16efc0d7e90e61660640243d602648a.png"],["authentication","266192566679da69d1b04d2b5f16d064"]]],["collection",{"collectionId":"36"},["elementSetContainer",["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"1"},["name","Dublin Core"],["description","The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It was owned by Lewis R. Boyd, who is most famous for the patent of this object which is a white milk-glass insert for zinc screw lids on hand-blown glass jars that was used to keep food from coming in contact with the metal so that it would preserve for longer. During 1871 and 1885 companies used outside contractors to make their lid-liners following a large factory fire. This type of glass lid-liner was patented in 1869 by Louis R. Boyd. Lewis R. Boyd and his company – The Sheet Metal Screw Company – patented a white ‘milk-glass’ insert for zinc screw lids to theoretically lessen the chances that food would come in contact with metal in 1869. Boyd became a partner in the Consolidated Fruit Jar Company in 1871, which was based in New Brunswick, New Jersey. This company contracted out with many other companies to produce their mason jars, a very popular item at the time. They stopped being manufactured around 1885, and the company went out of business in 1908. \r\nSince the glass lid dates from the late 1800s to the early 1900s, it could mean that this area of the Passaic River was in use at this time, unless the lid drifter downstream from another site, but this in unlikely since the jar top was found buried. Since the lid would have been on some sort of food product, it could indicate that this area was a popular picnic spot of the late 1800s, as it is today, or that this area was lived in and the jar lid was a commonplace item in a home of this time. Since this part of the Passaic River is on the outskirts of New York City, perhaps Madison was a popular weekend spot for New Yorkers during this time period to get out of the city, relax, and picnic. The presence of this object helps us to date possible settlements near the Passaic River and supports the hypothesis of this area being a lower class area. These jars were mass produced and relatively inexpensive. It also implies that instead of a housing barrack for just male workers, that women and children might have lived here. \r\n"]]]]]],["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"5"},["name","IIIF Item Metadata"],["description"],["elementContainer",["element",{"elementId":"65"},["name","UUID"],["description"],["elementTextContainer",["elementText",{"elementTextId":"3084"},["text","79003f30-43e6-4328-900d-bf5b170badcf"]]]]]]],["tagContainer",["tag",{"tagId":"9"},["name","toexport"]]]],["item",{"itemId":"701","public":"1","featured":"0"},["fileContainer",["file",{"fileId":"2460"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/bb2b8e6b834beae40e601773341db61a.png"],["authentication","1b51b6d128be9ef1b50a4c78dfccb48b"]]],["collection",{"collectionId":"36"},["elementSetContainer",["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"1"},["name","Dublin Core"],["description","The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Very little information seems to remain of the old Alderney company outside of old photographs of their milk bottling facilities.

This artifact, however, is not porcelain and therefore not the high quality ware referred to in the 18800s.

It seems as if the ceramic may have been cheap and the picture above was listed for sale online for sale at $3.75. It is unclear whether the company still exists or went out of business therefore all that is known is that the piece originated post 1862. This artifact found on the east side of the survey area seems to further indicate a possible home or hotel based on the fact that the same type of pottery was found at a historic hotel in Wyoming. It is interesting to note that a selective collection at a hotel historic site in Yellowstone National Park at the Yellowstone Lake Hotel found 22 pieces of chinaware identified as being Greenwood China and Co. from Trenton N.J.

Only the older bottles from this manufacturer are blue but it is not known when this bottle color was phased out. These bottles were handblown until 1910 which is also around the estimated time when the deep cobalt blue was discontinued. \r\n\r\nThis bottle represents a medicine bottle but since the same bottle was used for various medicines it is impossible to say for sure which type of medicine, but the same shape of bottle with its label intact  contained sodium phosphate; “A mild and pleasant Laxative Employed in the Treatment of Constipation, Obesity, Children’s Diarrhea, Rickets, Jaundice, etc.\r\n\r\nAccording to Baybottles - an antique bottle website:\r\nhttps://baybottles.com/2018/12/19/john-wyeth-bro-philadelphia/\r\n“The business of John Wyeth & Brother originated in 1861 when John and Frank Wyeth formed a partnership and opened an apothecary store in Philadelphia.  The company and its several successors have remained in business for over 150 years, ultimately becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer in 2009.\r\n\r\nA graduate of the Philadelphia School of Pharmacy, prior to founding John Wyeth & Brother, John Wyeth had partnered with Henry C. Blair under the name of Blair & Wyeth, in a Philadelphia pharmacy business located at Eighth and Walnut Streets. His brother Frank Wyeth, also a Philadelphia School of Pharmacy graduate, worked for the business as chief clerk.\r\n\r\nOn July 1, 1861 the Blair & Wyeth partnership was dissolved and the brothers formed a new partnership under the name John Wyeth & Brother. Notices for both the dissolution of the old business and establishment of the new business were printed in the July 2, 1861 edition of the Philadelphia Inquirer.”\r\n\r\nTheir entrance into drug manufacturing appears to be driven by the increased need for drug related supplies as a result of the Civil War. Wyeth’s obituary, in the April 1907 edition of a pharmaceutical magazine called “The Spatula,” stated:\r\nWhen the Civil War broke out he secured a big contract to furnish the Government with medicinal supplies, and from this began the manufacturing of pharmaceutical articles.\r\n\r\nEarly in their history the business became famous for their sweetened tinctures which they called elixirs. A story featuring Wyeth in the March 28, 1881 edition of the Montreal Gazette described their elixirs like this:\r\nThe elixirs are drug compounds, made up in an elegant and palatable shape; drugs which are nauseating in the ordinary form are in this guise cordials which a patient can take with relish and which the weakest and most sensitive stomach will not reject.\r\n\r\nThe company was sold to American Home Products in the early 1930s after the death of the son of John Wyeth. \r\n\r\nOne of the headquarters of American Home Products and then Wyeth was located in Madison, New Jersey, next to Drew University for the latter part of the 20th century and early 21st century. \r\n"]]]]]],["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"5"},["name","IIIF Item Metadata"],["description"],["elementContainer",["element",{"elementId":"65"},["name","UUID"],["description"],["elementTextContainer",["elementText",{"elementTextId":"3040"},["text","92a05846-2e57-41c6-90e9-986fb675d5ea"]]]]]]],["tagContainer",["tag",{"tagId":"2"},["name","domestic life"]],["tag",{"tagId":"3"},["name","History of Manufacturing"]]]],["item",{"itemId":"697","public":"1","featured":"0"},["fileContainer",["file",{"fileId":"2418"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/39f36eb47a9da6954f6fcd73c0db0e12.JPG"],["authentication","3d0e30b192b0d0443bde47595f4c5b86"]],["file",{"fileId":"2419"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/9d34a4921fcba785f161800dbe9f7883.JPG"],["authentication","aa8f7637a13d0fc26806bed8cbdbe5d6"]],["file",{"fileId":"2420"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/be764e8fb5669177ce937ecb8f1314c0.JPG"],["authentication","a8e6cc6acfc9fd5cb40ac40c02a3ffc2"]],["file",{"fileId":"2421"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/de76bc3ca1ae21cd653844c93e122c38.JPG"],["authentication","128289f9364edd97755ad203a3ecb7e4"]],["file",{"fileId":"2422"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/a4c54819c427da574e73e2851cd7ff0d.JPG"],["authentication","f7a8323c091d31bd1be81d191cdea167"]],["file",{"fileId":"2423"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/a0e37831e0e0cd9230ccfbad83d0e022.JPG"],["authentication","c914b0fca294945417956d8b3fa63c72"]],["file",{"fileId":"2424"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/9b2c7b9c53b1693faa145c182407f3ac.JPG"],["authentication","ddd8475661e49a28b29fc3d32a1d8fc2"]],["file",{"fileId":"2425"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/5dc1a0f7de4af534ced4750bfc8d667c.JPG"],["authentication","ceda237bfc5028b637296dc8d8b095ba"]],["file",{"fileId":"2426"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/cb644d86fca0f1b178d0bef1df97b72f.JPG"],["authentication","e437f18c1b787285a3bc774986f21c5b"]],["file",{"fileId":"2427"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/b6e81be5744b58e428e9164bea7fe80c.png"],["authentication","5630e4ddc842ccb13f47ba9256ef1f29"]],["file",{"fileId":"2428"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/30e6157c25427ed8c53caece84eacd6a.png"],["authentication","6dee8f010f01de505ab9517eb21d557b"]],["file",{"fileId":"2429"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/f0f9b16555f479e47513ce4600e45f3a.jpg"],["authentication","fbccd7d5fcb3803c51ae58d0010c8323"]]],["collection",{"collectionId":"36"},["elementSetContainer",["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"1"},["name","Dublin Core"],["description","The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Suspenders were composed of several diverse, metal pieces that fastened, tightened, and loosened the strap pieces according to each person’s desired fit and length. They were essential to keeping undergarments and outer garments in place, and served as a fashionable and decorative accessory. In fact, women and children wore them for the same purpose! Suspenders first appeared in 18th century France as strips of ribbon attached to the buttonhole of trousers, and were not meant to be seen or worn on the outside of garments. Beginning in the early 1820’s, British designer Albert Thurston provided a solution to the profoundly high-waisted pants men wore according to the fashion of the day. Suspenders that attached via leather loops were manufactured to replace the belt in these cases, since men’s pants were very high above the hip. Original designs show suspender straps made of tightly woven wool known as “boxcloth” and formed an “H” when attached at the back. They were made in two separate bands, with leather tabs and buttonholes, and one end adjustable with a buckle.  Later designs were made in knitted and crocheted cotton, embroidered in colored silks, lined with silk, and featured an X-back that later transformed into the Y-back. \r\n\r\n“Braces form a necessary adjunct to a gentleman’s wardrobe and they are generally pleased to have them prettily worked” (Britain, Woman’s Domestic Magazine, Patterns, Fashions and Needlework, 1865). \r\n\r\nThe design and function of a single suspender clasp based off of image Cat # 8.47.12 are as follows: “A single suspender clasp stamped from copper alloy sheet metal, plated with a white metal, was recovered from this shaft feature (Cat # 8.47.12). The clasp features a detailed, stamped decoration consisting of beaded bands with a small floral and scroll motif. A wide, flat hook projects from one long edge and would have connected to a large metal ring to secure the ends of the suspender. This mechanism would allow the suspenders to be unhooked at the ring, while the straps and ends remained secured to the pants.” (http://diggingi95.com/features/high-priority-features-section-8/section-8-feature-5-personal-accessories/)\r\n\r\nThe suspender end design created by E.W. Whittaker was patented on August 13, 1889. It features a design and shape almost exact to one of the suspender buckles in the collection (first picture, buckle in the bottom left hand corner). \r\n\r\nGarter belts and hose (stocking) supporters were used to hold up men, women, and children stockings to prevent them from falling down constantly. For men’s garters and hose supporters, they were usually made of silk and came in various colors. A clip from the garter was affixed to the sock edge and were made adjustable to fit comfortably below the knee. These pieces were not meant to be seen, hidden under trouser legs. For women, a more intricate design was manufactured and transformed over decades that featured a type of belt with hose supporters attached on each side. They were long straps with clips at the end that fell along the outside of the thigh that was then connected to the stocking. An earlier form of this combination belt, the girdle (corset combined with supporter straps), was replaced with garter belts, as they were easier to handle and less bulky, liberating the female figure.

Though the hourglass figure and small waist were still coveted, the waistline of the corset dropped to a natural position compared to earlier designs of the corset. The fashion of the era called for high waisted and long flowing dresses, requiring heavily boned corsetry and tight lacing to achieve the desired figure. To ease this intense process of lacing, French Corsetier, Jean-Julien Josselin, invented the split busk in 1829, a front facing slot and stud closure to remove a corset without unlacing. This became extremely popular after Joseph Cooper patented the design in 1848 in America. \r\nCorsets were used by all women, regardless of class, to represent and showcase their beauty. These undergarments were even used on young children and teenage girls to begin shaping their bodies and preparing for womanhood."]]]]]],["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"5"},["name","IIIF Item Metadata"],["description"],["elementContainer",["element",{"elementId":"65"},["name","UUID"],["description"],["elementTextContainer",["elementText",{"elementTextId":"3017"},["text","5dc1aad8-829f-4cab-8740-41fd0b815656"]]]]]]],["tagContainer",["tag",{"tagId":"9"},["name","toexport"]]]],["item",{"itemId":"695","public":"1","featured":"0"},["fileContainer",["file",{"fileId":"2405"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/6b0cc2326571bdc401bccd1ea331aa93.JPG"],["authentication","873e9cc43df9fd90cda3ae5e2217ac52"]],["file",{"fileId":"2406"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/b6d54e2bfd80738ed9b057d91903f2a9.JPG"],["authentication","f568d61eef4be3446c177a82c98b8d0c"]],["file",{"fileId":"2407"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/9ae844deec3e70b475b96b4f8ee0f8ea.JPG"],["authentication","a61ac90a2f63d3bc8455a50cc6a94d68"]],["file",{"fileId":"2408"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/0b38e6a81633b901996c55401f4ae6ff.JPG"],["authentication","0f8e2eabbd1a39e1ffc64893535911a7"]],["file",{"fileId":"2409"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/5e7ae0dc674f69aa6f52b0703e1c7f08.JPG"],["authentication","129d62221fd8cb2d5ee3c15c0fe27034"]],["file",{"fileId":"2410"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/4cfd2be029434ea38aa1745aa5a234b1.png"],["authentication","b1f14648478b845bd4f1f68251870fdf"]],["file",{"fileId":"2411"},["src","https://omeka.drew.edu/files/original/e2edf7138c039fad1a1e67ff1f0a633d.jpg"],["authentication","2348ed29e84b6a6260070a7f008ef320"]]],["collection",{"collectionId":"36"},["elementSetContainer",["elementSet",{"elementSetId":"1"},["name","Dublin Core"],["description","The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
