found an old farm and an old dump

[RCO]

dug at the same little dump near the farmhouse and found some more older corked bottles , anything with writing on it was broken . was a few broken medicine bottles from companies in toronto i had never seen before .
also found an old spoon , porceline doll leg and an old shell casing .

also made an unusal find on the edge of the dump near some rocks , found an old harmonica , its the marine band model . has a patent date of 1897 and was made in germany . it also still has the wooden piece . metal is broken on the other side .
can't get a close up picture that shows the engraving on the metal , it also looks to be a fairly common harmonica based on what i saw on ebay .

the only 3 bottles i found interesting , 2 small light green bottles . the small one looks to be the oldest i've found so far .
and a light purple medicine bottles , only marking is it says " handy " on bottom .

more farm finds , went back and dug some more .

found lots of broken china plates and cups that were made in england . aqua bottle that after some research was some sort of food jar . damaged white glass jar , found the exact same jar swiming this summer oddly enough . also a white door knob and jar lid .

also found a broken piece of glass that appears to be from a local drugist and chemist bottle , its sort of like trying to fill a crossword puzzle with whats left but i see " ebridge" which would of been bracebridge when not broken . farm is near town of bracebridge so it make sense they'd have such a bottle . never seen a local drugist bottle for this area so don't know much about it .

 

[RCO]

the aqua bottle all cleaned up , its in really good shape . but don't know too much about it .

 

[RCO]

the 2 smaller bottles cleaned up , both have a light clour of purple . which i though was neat .

I believe the Bracebridge bottle has the name at the top that looks like it ends with "AND". If that is the case, the name on the bottle would have been Bridgland. I dont know who had bottles, but there are a few Bridglands listed, and seeing the bottle and looking at the dates of the names, it probably said either Samuel Bridgland or Henry Bridgland.

Hope this helps!
