I cannot believe how inconsiderate these old Milk bottle makers and / or users were not putting the town and city names on the bottle. Didn't they know how frustrating it would be for future collectors? [:mad:][8D] I also have had many hours spent searching for such information. Good Luck.

I don't remember, that was like an hour ago. I think the info with Secane was form the 1850's and prior so maybe used "-Secane".Anyway I forgot to link the book so HERE.Give credit where it's due.
