Hello Ruben,

Welcome. This is where a good photo would come in real handy. There's a swell ad for them On this page, from 1912.

They were also Fruit Tree Nurserymen.

Every listing I've seen for them places them at New Canaan.

Please do put up some photos? What kinda bottle is it?

Good ad Sir Surf.
Everything with the above embossing tends toward a beverage of some sort. Whether it water, soda, beer or just for a store return of such beverages.
I'll go with a blob top.[8|]

I'm a little late in responding (about nine years late :)) but Gray Brother's was actually our family's soda water company. It was based out of Connecticut and made with well water from the property. I still have the formula for the Ginger Ale and always dreamed of re-starting the brand!
