Hello WEV,

June & I are out and about this weekend. Stopped into a friend's house. They are always anxious for us to look at their most recent finds before putting it into their shop. They had some coin silver. One piece sort of rang a bell. I borrowed their PC and logged into your great Genealogy of American Silversmiths tree . This may be the mark for Charles Hequembourg which you are looking for. What do you think?

Scott,
Bohan & Hammerslough identify the mark you show as Charles Hequembourg Jr. who worked in Connecticut and then in NY. I have a later spoon marked with an incuse Hequenbourg. I believe it is the mark of Charles L. Hequenbourg of St. Louis, MO.

Sorry for the tardiness of the reply, Scott. I ran across a nice tablespoon a month back and so have the mark now, but I thank you for keeping my project to mind.

Fred, Charles L. was the grandson on Charles
Hequembourg of New Haven; in fact he was Charles the IV in the line. Will I be getting a scan of his mark?

Charles Hequembourg also worked in Paterson, New Jersey from the late 1820's through the early 1830's at least
