It is 9.2 cm. long from lip to base. The bore is 1 cm., the finish 0.9 cm., the neck 2.9 cm. in diameter, the shoulder 0.9 cm., the body 2.67 cm. and the base 3.1 cm. On the body of the bottle there is an indented panel with the words “Hoyt’s German Cologne E.W. Hoyt & Co. Lowell Mass”. On the bottom of the bottle is the number 3. An outside seam runs along both of the sides of the bottle all the way from the base to the finish. The color of the glass appears opaque but when illuminated by the light a purplish hue is evident. The purple (amethyst) could mean that the compound of the bottle is either nickel or manganese. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource E.W. Hoyt and Co.

The name "German" was originally applied to the cologne in 1870. This name was chosen just to give a definite title to the cologne; it was not actually from Germany. The cologne initially was only sold in $1.00 bottles, with sample vials filled with cologne freely distributed to create an increased demand. By 1877, the production of the German Cologne became so great that Hoyt sold the apothecary shop to two then employees, Crowell and Harrison. The original $1.00 bottle limited distribution since it was more cologne than most people needed (or wanted). Shedd designed a distinctive round bottle with the indented panel for use with the cologne and provided both the $1.00 and a new 25¢ trial-size bottle. This trial-sized bottle proved to be a huge success and business expanded quickly. The date when the trial-sized bottle was introduced is estimated to be in the early 1870's, since a medium-sized (50¢) bottle was introduced in 1876. The bottle could have been purchased and used from the 1880’s until around 1918 when the company’s name changed to “Eau de Cologne” because of World War I. It could have been shipped to New Jersey and used around the area of its discovery.

Guyot suspender clasps Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Selling at 60 cents a pair in 1907 (New York Times advertisement) the suspenders with these clasps were advertised as a European style for gentlemen and were priced quite high for the era as a luxury product. The brand had many French and German advertisements and only a few advertisements had photos in the records of the New York Public Library. The advertisements appear to be targeted to upperclass men shown fencing and in pursuits associated with the wealthier class. Ostheimer Bros in Philadelphia and New York figure in advertisements as distributors of the suspenders and an emphasis is on "Genuine Guyot Suspenders". There were issues about imitations and therefore one had to look for the CH Guyot and stars stamped on the metal pieces. Suspenders with CH Guyot adjuster clasps like those found in Chatham are in the Webb Cook Hayes Collection at the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Library and Museums Catalog #1934.236.12. They are listed as associated with WWI. https://rbhayes.pastperfectonline.com/webobject/0D5368BA-68FE-4238-A6F8-476103406830 The significance of these data and objects for the Chatham Township site is that it provides additional chronological placement as well as provides information on what was being produced and manufactured at the Stanley Mill which was located in the area of the site where these artifacts are found. Similar artifacts are visible across the surface of the western mill area and in the same area where remnants of felt are found along with buttons, bricks and metal machine pieces. The question is why are there such a large number of these suspender adjusters and associated suspender pieces found at the site. Was there men's clothing being manufactured at the mill? Since these are associated with upper class men it is unlikely they are the result of workmen's clothing. This also would not explain the high number of examples present at the site. Relation A related resource CH. Guyot had factories in Germany, France and possibly Philadelphia. A 1907 advertisement from Ostheimer Bros. 1001 Chestnut St. Philadelphia pictures "Genuine Guyot Suspenders" which suggests these were being sold in Philadelphia but may not have been manufactured there.

Through research, it seems that the small buttons with only two holes were used in undergarments and were probably handmade based on the need of the owner/wearer. The larger buttons made from either ceramic or celluloid material (celluloid is a material only found in buttons made at the turn of the century or later) and were most likely used on everyday clothing, especially due to the simple ornate patterns. The rounded metal button was most likely fastened on the front of a coat jacket since they were used for a sturdier fasten and were not as susceptible to tear. The buckle button with writing is the hardest button to place out of the grouping. Though the writing is not completely legible, the style of font seems to indicate that this button was probably made by a button manufacturing company and displays the name of the company. Factory manufactured buttons found in more rural areas seem to indicate that their use was more for purposeful functions, rather than for fashion or status purposes and was probably seen on outerwear during the middle 19th century. These buttons offer a very interesting look into the personal interactions of the people who lived on this site probably in the middle to late 19th century. The materials used help to define social status as well as material availability as well as the type of clothing these people would have worn on a daily basis. Often the fabrics used to make clothing don’t survive so buttons allow for better interpretation as to what types of material culture was important to this specific society. The buckle button provides evidence that this community had access to trade or commerce which allowed for manufactured goods to be purchased and used for personal use.

Sources differ on the year Ridgway was founded and began production. According to some sources, production began in the beginning of the 19th century, and continued under various Ridgway companies until it became a part of Royal Doulton in the 1960s. W.P. Jervis’s 1911 A Pottery Primer says that Ridgway pottery began with Job Ridgway, who began a small company known as Job Ridgway and Sons in the late 1780s-1790s. He later sold his interests and his sons bought it back in 1806. It was originally manufactured in Staffordshire, England. According to another source, the company was known as John Ridgway and Co from 1814, then J and W Ridgway, W Ridgway, and W Ridgway and Son. In 1836 the name then changed again to W. Ridgway, Morley, Wear, and Co. John Ridgway was named Potter to Queen Victoria and traveled to America in the 1820s, establishing an export trade (the pottery was only ever produced in England). The Royal Crown and the Royal Arms were frequently used in the potter’s mark after 1850. The sherd is likely post 1820, when Ridgway pottery began being exported to America. It is possibly pre-1850 because it doesn’t have any royal markings. Because of the apparent confusion about the exact beginning and evolution of the Ridgway pottery brand, it was difficult to determine a more specific manufacture date; there is little information available about the variations in the Ridgway potter’s mark, although there are variations. Ridgway was known for good quality porcelain with blue designs. This, and the fact that it was an import from England, might indicate that items from this manufacturer were considered a luxury good, or at least more expensive than similar, domestic items. Without knowing the specific type of ceramic object this came from, it’s hard to speculate as to what specific cultural significance it had.

The pottery was located along Third Street between Landing St. and Lalor St., in the Lamberton section of Trenton. In 1888, Thomas Maddock purchased the pottery, renamed it the Lamberton Works Co. In 1923, one-time Maddock office boy D. William Scammell purchased, along with his five brothers, the plant and the ongoing china business from the Maddocks, which the Scammells ran successfully until it closed in 1954. Lamberton China was the name given to the hotel china made by Maddock Pottery Co. which was known for their manufacturing of fine grades of semi-porcelain in table and toilet wares. The firm’s primary interest was the production of toilet wares but their hotel china was used by many prominent hotel & restaurant customers included the Waldorf-Astoria, United Hotels Corp, William Penn Hotel, and train services such as the Pennsylvania, the New Jersey Central, the Union Pacific, the New York Central, and the Southern Pacific. Considering the other objects found on the site are of household items such as food containers, buttons, and doll pieces I believe that the pieces of Maddock’s pottery are probably household toilet wares or high end China. Furthermore, the indication that Maddock Pottery Co. was used by upper class businesses one could assume that the pieces found on this site come from a possible upper middle class household. However, there is also a strong possibility that a majority of this pottery could also be the result of a hoarder’s large collection of porcelain wares. Nevertheless, without any household foundations found on the site one could make a wager that this site was a local household dumping ground.

The bottle was probably manufactured between the late 1880s and 1910s. Since the artefact is only a small portion of the original bottle, it is difficult to give a more accurate date. William Selser bought land in Pennsylvania and started a bee farm based in Philadelphia. Selser came from a family long involved with various manufacturing industries. Earlier in his life Selser was involved with both leather tanning and fruit importing. Selser’s honey manufacturing was at one time known as the “most complete honey-bottling works” in the world. He sold honey primarily in the tristate area. While there is some information about his business when he first started selling honey there is little to do with the business in later years. So one can only give a general idea of the bottle’s origins. It may have been purchased and thrown out or it could have been kept and passed down through the generations.

Krueger Brewing Co. takes its name from Gottfried Wilhelm Ephraim Krüger, born in Sulzfeld, Germany, November 4, 1837. He was invited to America at the age of 16 by his uncle, his mother’s brother, John Laible, who had migrated to the New World to become a brewer and started the brewery with Louis Adam. In 1853 at the age of 16 he came through the Port of New York to begin working at the Laible-Adam Brewery. At the age of 21 he was made foreman and a naturalized citizen in 1860. In 1865 he joined with a gentleman named Gottlieb Hill to buy Louis Adam’s interest in the brewery. The plant had an output of about 4,000 barrels annually. After Hill’s death in 1875 followed by the death of John Laible, Krueger bought out both interests and became the sole owner of G. Krueger Brewing Co. The brewery had by then reached an output of 20,000 barrels per year. In 1882 English investors allowed the brewery and its portfolio to grow further with a change to a more British bent. Krueger later started a new investment group based in the U.S. that bought out the English investors in 1908. The Krueger Brewing Co. is also known for being the first to produce and sell beer in cans. A risky venture which did become accepted and helped the brewery to prosper further. Gottfried Krueger was a contributor to many charities and rose to become a powerful political figure in Newark. http://kruegerbrewingcompany.com/gottfried-krueger-brewing-beer/ Canned beer made its debut on January 24, 1935. Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company working in partnership with the American Can Company delivered 2,000 cans of Krueger’s Finest Beer and Krueger’s Cream Ale to faithful Krueger drinkers in Richmond, Virginia. The choice of Virginia was made in case the innovation was not a success. Canning and the use of cans to store and distribute food stuffs were instrumental in the mass distribution of food and changes in diet by the late 19th century. Canned beer was not attempted until 1909 when the the American Can Company made its first attempt to can beer. This was unsuccessful, and the American Can Company would have to wait for the end of Prohibition in the United States before it tried again. Finally in 1933, after two years of research, American Can developed a can that was pressurized and had a special coating to prevent the fizzy beer from chemically reacting with the tin. Purchasing cans did not require a deposit, were easier to stack, more durable, less breakable and took less time to chill. The use of cans particularly exploded during WWII when brewers shipped millions of cans of beer to soldiers overseas. https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/first-canned-beer-goes-on-sale In 1957 Krueger's was sold to a new group of owners headed by John Eisenbeiss although some of the Krueger family retained their interest in the company and William C. Krueger remained board chairman. In 1958 the brewery celebrated its 100th Anniversary. The celebration couldn't hide the fact that Krueger's was suffering a loss of market share to the national companies like Schlitz and Anheuser-Busch. In 1961 the company was sold, the Newark plant was closed and the brand was produced by Narragansett in Cranston, Rhode Island. The original brewing plant was leveled in 1988 to build, what else, a shopping center. http://www.rustycans.com/COM/month0406.html The Krueger Brewing Company is still in existence today but is not a family owned business with breweries in Florida and Colorado. http://kruegerbrewingcompany.com/ Brewing and Newark History and Manufacturing “Brewing success was not due to luck, but based on the fact that Newark was blessed with excellent transportation, had a skilled workforce at its disposal, contained a large beer drinking immigrant population and had secured an excellent source of plentiful and inexpensive water. Joseph G. Haynes, Newark's 20th mayor, demanded of the town's common council the promise to provide Newark citizens and industry with good water. Indeed, more than once Haynes stressed that Newarkers should not use 'filthy Passaic River water.' Largely through his efforts, the city succeeded by 1899 in using 6 million taxpayer dollars to purchase the 35,000 acres of the present Newark watershed in Sussex, Passaic and Morris counties. Along with this purchase, three reservoirs were built and an elaborate series of pipes laid to get this water to town. While fresh water provided better health for Newarkers, it also served as the backbone of one of our greatest industries. Haynes stated, 'If a single death of a human could have been traced to use of (watershed water), my opponents would have clamored—and justly—for my indictment for murder.' With the new source of water, disease-related death ended and a great industry—brewing—was further nourished.” https://knowingnewark.npl.org/in-a-glass-darkly-beer-marks-citys-history-brewers-benefited-from-workers-water/ Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Drew University Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context Glass Bottle IIIF Item Metadata UUID ae659dc5-c95d-4be3-9ff4-3c0296ef6b6d diet History of Manufacturing History of Newark Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mr. H. J. Heinz founded the company in 1869. In 1875 he sold his company to his brother John and cousin Frederick. They called their company F&J Heinz, using the initials from their first names. They eventually sold the companies back to HJ in 1888 and the name became H.J. Heinz. https://sha.org/bottle/pdffiles/Heinzbottlecodes.pdf The company was started by Henry J. Heinz and from a young age he began bottling vegetables. The company had various versions involving family members and associates and even bought a glass blowing factory in order to produce their own bottles. The firm reached success as H. J. Heinz around 1888 and by 1898, the firm was growing “all of its own crops, with farms in several states and different plants for different products. The company had branch offices in various states and as far away as London, England.” “Heinz strongly supported the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 and used it to his advantage (Alberts 1973:171-180). On catsup bottles, for example, he added “free from benzoate of soda”; “guaranteed pure”; and noted that his product “complied with all laws throughout the world” (Foster & Kennedy 2006:39).” https://sha.org/bottle/pdffiles/Heinz.pdf Lockhart, Bill, Beau Schriever, Bill Lindsey, and Carol Serr The H.J.
