Marstons mill
My grandfather recently passed away and I found amoung some of his things a badger brush and a bar of shaving soap with his inital on it. On the other side it says Marston's Mill. I have looked on the internet but can not find anything out about this. Can anyone here help? Thanks, Mack

May have been a local shop ? Might try asking old timers in the area or they still have libraries , I think, and they keep articles you may be able to research. I always say "if you can't Google it , it does not exist." You may have something pre Google. :<0)
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

Did you grandfather spend time in the Massachusetts or New England area? Marston's Mill is a village around here in Cape Cod. Its part of the town of Barnstable, MA. Maybe that village has something to do with it.
You can take the boy out of NY, but you can't take NY out of the boy.

He was an engineering consultant, and traveled a lot, so anything is possible. He was a straight razor shaver at one time, before he got old and his hands shook. He lived to be ninety three.
