Here is a bottle made by my great, great grandfather, P.J. Ratigan of Bordentown, NJ. It's a 1864 Matthews Gravitating Stopper. Generously sold to me by a local NJ collector.

Thanks L C...also acquired a couple made by my great, great uncle, PJ's son, TJ. Very appreciative to have them in the family. Searching for these bottles has what has got me hooked on bottle collecting. Much to my wife's dismay.
