My favorite piece this week!




This is amazing! Old wooden divided crate with wide dove tail joins has the name Lt. Col. K.A. Hunton Epping NH on one side. I did some research and he was in the Civil War. He is listed as leading the company of Michigan engineers at The Battle of Mill Springs in Kentucky. I find it so fascinating that this very box probably traveled around with him, and then returned back to NH! Measures 20 inches by 28 inches by 10-1/4 inches deep. Great piece of NH history!
SOLD!
