Dear David, That is wonderful! I had thought that the "N" might not be just a coincidence, but didn't think (or know how) to look into the family tree. Now it does seem likely that my bobbins were made by Rhona. It doesn't seem as if she did much silver work, as the assay office only know her by her initials.

I wonder if >anyone on the list can help. Having had a bit of a look into Frank W. NEWBORN's family tree, I found that he only had the one daughter and her name was - wait for it - Rhona K. NEWBORN. I found no marriage for her but I bet you she's the maker of your bobbins!!!
