Hey Evan, It's hard to be completely sure of a button's use, but most of the time we can figure the size and the style to indicate who it might of belonged to. We can also guess the age based on the site and other items found there, and the fact that buttons changed over time. Mine is actually post colonial, since it is a two piece button. I figure that style to be more women or little girl ish. But then again, times change and who knows what was a man's style back then. Ever get a load of them wigs?? lol lol
ha ha G ya ever think what they might think of mine & your wigs?
