| The
face of this elaborate silvered button is decorated with
woven wire. It is one of an abundance of artifacts, some
military and many expensive, even frivolous, found by archaeologists
at the Acker site in Birchtown. It, and other clothing-related
artifacts found at the site, reflect a person who had not
only a sense of style and fashion but the means to show
it. The items suggest that the house may have belonged to
Stephen and Margaret Blucke. She had some money and he had
status in the military. |
