I have a question for any furniture experts out there.
As part of a historic house restoration of Adena, 1807 home of
Thomas Worthington in Chillicothe, Ohio, we are reviewing bills of
furnishings. One of the bills, dating to about 1808 or 1809, lists this
item:
a set of Northumberlin tables $30.00
Has anyone ever heard of anything like this? Any ideas on how to
interpret this? You can contact me off-list if you would like.
Thanks in advance,
Cheryl J. Lugg
