Hey Noreen, Welcome to the Antique Bottle Forum. I can't say what the markings on the bricks are but some could be worth a bit of money. It is alot of fun resarching old houses, land, bricks, bottles, well you get the idea.
Old Henry's horticulturalists were growing plants that could possibly be used to make rubber. He and Thomas A. Edison where trying to come up with a source of rubber that could be cutlivated in the USA. They actually extracted usable rubber from Goldenrods but synthetic rubber came along and put them out of business.
It was too expensive anyway.
Hope this helps a little.
