Still Another Whatz-It!

In my "other" life I worked at a Fortune 500 Company in Massachusetts - Norton Company. I was actually the 4th generation to work at this abrasives company. Their original products were ceramic jugs, crocks and that type of thing. This is one from my great-Grandfather, who also was employed by them. Ironically, this company started in 1885, the same year this house was completed! Come visit this Orlando area bed & breakfast - Thurston House - and check it our for yourselves!
