Hello Tod,

Every reference to Wallace H. showed his last name to be Bate.

"WALLACE H BATE OF NORWOOD ASSIGNOE TO HIMSELF AND MATHIAS
RADERMACHER OF BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS

IMPROVEMENT IN FASTENINGS FOR BOTTLE STOPPERS

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No 1 67,633 dated September 14 1875 application filed
August 18 1875." From.​

He sure did move around Boston a lot.

Sorry, couldn't resist. [8D] All my old English teachers would revolt, and revolve a bit, too; at least some of them...

I'll send a fresh $20 bill to the person that finds the correct google patent : )

I stumbled across this, did anyone win? []
