I don't know much about Georgia bottles, but I would think it would be a John Ryan bottle. Although... James Ray and Henry Kuck were there early as well.

Is there a possibility of the ED Meyer from Atlanta being the earliest? Saw an auction on ebay with the bottle being pontiled and in cobalt blue.

Could be. E. D. Meyer was in Augusta in the 1840s. Only 7 bottles known. Tough to say who was earlier of the two. Maybe someone has already researched that?
