selling2u Posts: 2 Registered: May 2005	posted 05-22-2005 11:40 PM Hello All Trying to find the maker J & J Aldous or Joseph & John Angell, the mark is more like 1843-4 on page 170 of Old Silver by Wyler - the Aldous mark is square and this mark is like 4 circles with the lettering inside, this really leads me to believe that John Angell might have had another brother or apprentice that it why the mark is JA IA? What are your thoughts on this? Thanks Steve IP: Logged
