152 Silver washstand basin anthony rasch & co., philadelphia circa 1820 The deep circular bowl with ribbed border, stamped twice on underside of the rim “A Rasch & Co.,” and twice “Philadelphia.” The underside of bowl inscribed “To Ellen Pollard Lewis 1795, to Betty Washington Lewis, 1818, to Betty Washington Lovell 1866, to Frances Fielding Oldham 1932, to Frances Lovell Oldham 1961, Marybelle Gordon Drummond 1968”.

Diam: 12 1/2 in. Weight: 36 troy oz. provenance: Descending for seven generations, in the family of Betty Washington Lewis, the sister of George Washington, this Philadelphia-made, engraved, silver washstand basin, has a long and interesting story to tell. Elizabeth or Betty Washington, born in 1733, married Col. Fielding Lewis (1725-1781) a lifelong friend of her brother George, officer in the Revolutionary War and prominent Virginian, in 1750. Together, they built the stately Georgian mansion, Kenmore Plantation in Fredericksburg, Virginia, which stands today as a National Historic Landmark. The couple had eleven children. Their youngest son, Howell Lewis (1771-1822) married Ellen Hackley Pollard in 1795. Ellen Pollard Lewis (1776-1855) is the first engraved name on the basin. Howell Lewis served at times as his uncle’s secretary, overseer of Mount Vernon while his uncle George Washington, was President. In 1818, the daughter of Ellen Pollard and Howell Lewis, Betty Washington Lewis (1796-1866) married Col. Joseph Lovell (1796-1835) and lived in Charlestown, West Virginia. As a very small child Betty Washington Lewis visited George and Martha Washington at Mt. Vernon and had the special honor of sitting at the “adult table,” an invitation not typically extended to children at the time.

Little Betty also is said to have sat on Washington’s knee a few months before his death. Betty Washington Lewis Lovell passed away in Marietta, Ohio. Betty Washington Lewis and Col. Joseph Lovell had one child, Joseph Lovell, Jr.(1827-1865) His marriage to Sara Nye (1829-1934) produced Betty

Washington Lovell (1853 - 1934) the third engraved name on the bowl. Betty Lovell married Frances Fox Oldham (1849-1912) in 1876. The fourth engraved name, the child of Betty Washington Lovell and Francis Fox Oldham, Frances Fielding Oldham was born in 1889 in Ohio. By the age of eleven she was living in Washington D.C. She is known to have worked as a Licensed Nurse at Presbyterian Hospital on the upper west side of New York City circa 1915. The fifth engraved name, Frances Lovell Oldham, was born in Seattle, Washington. Best known as an editor of Harper’s Bazaar and later fashion editor at Vogue in the UK, Frances Lovell Oldham (1903-1991) was originally married to the Hon. James Rodney. Frances Rodney later divorced and married Captain Charles Gordon, with whom she had a daughter, Marybelle Gordon. Frances later married Captain Alwyne Farquharson of Invercauld. As Frances Farquharson of Invercauld, she was best known for her fashionable and unique taste in both clothing and castle décor at Braemar Castle, so much so that the castle was opened for a period of time as a visitor attraction. On June 24, 1961, Marybelle Gordon, daughter of Captain Charles Gordon and Frances Lovell Oldham, married the Hon. James Reginald Drummond, son of John David Drummond, 17th Earl of Perth. This silver washstand basin has traveled across the United States and the Atlantic Ocean for almost 200 years. $7,000-9,000

203 Lithgow Family silver hilted smallsword andrew tyler (1692-1741), boston, 1720-1740 Tyler’s mark stamped twice, on quillon and knucklebow, the undersides of shells engraved with the initials, “RL” for Robert Lithgow and the date “1701” and “Capt. Wm. Lithgow,” the blade etched with full figure of an Indian and scrollwork.

L: 33 in. provenance: According to family tradition, the first owner of the sword, Robert Lithgow, was born 1678 in Glendermoth, Ireland. He emigrated to Halifax, Nova Scotia, then to Boston. He settled in Topsham Maine around 1720 and fled to Brunswick when the town was attacked by Indians. He later settled in Georgetown, Maine. The second owner of the sword was Robert’s son William Lithgow (1713? -1798) who was born in Boston. Known as Captain William Lithgow, he commanded Ft. Richmond and later Ft. Halifax and was employed as an Indian agent by the government from about 1754-1774. It has been suggested that the Indian figure on the blade was etched at this time. In later life, Lithgow became a Judge. The third owner of the sword was William Lithgow, Jr. (1750-1796) who served as Captain of the Massachusetts Militia, and entered the army as a Major of the 11th Massachusetts Regiment.

204 Attributed to George Engleheart (British, 1750-1829) miniature portrait of sir alexander forrester inglis cochrane (1758-1832) Watercolor on ivory, gilt metal locket frame, not examined out of frame.

3 1/6 in. x 2 1/2 in. provenance: Descended in the Cochrane family to the present owner. Alexander Cochrane played a significant role in the War of 1812. As Vice Admiral of the British Expeditionary Fleet and Commander in Chief of North American Station, Cochrane orchestrated the effective blockade of American ports. His ships brought many of the British troops that captured Washington D.C., burned the White House and most of the other government buildings.

Perhaps Cochrane’s most famous act in the War was leading the attack on the key port of Baltimore, Maryland. Under Cochrane’s command, the British Navy bombarded Fort McHenry in Baltimore Harbor for 25 hours. The bombardment inspired observer, Francis Scott Key to write “The Star Spangled Banner” which became our national anthem. In January of 1815, Cochrane’s ships delivered many British soldiers to one of the last events of the War, The Battle of New Orleans, where they were defeated by Americans under the command of Gen. Andrew Jackson. $20,000-30,000

Goodes, Dec. 12th 1887”, oil on canvas, framed. provenance: DuPont served with distinction as a naval officer in the Mexican War and was active in the establishment of the Naval Academy at Annapolis. At the outbreak of the Civil War DuPont was appointed to the Commission of Conference to plan Northern naval operations. He was given command of the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron and his capture of Port Royal, South Carolina in November of 1861 was the first major Union naval victory of the war. This victory inspired Herman Melville to write “DuPont’s Round Fight,” a poem. In 1863, however, DuPont was blaimed for the worst naval defeat of the war when his fleet of ironclads failed to take Charleston. He asked to be relived of his command and died two years later. In 1882, Congress recognized Du Pont’s naval service and commissioned a statue of him to be placed in the renamed DuPont Circle in Washington, D.C. The Dupont family later replaced the statue with a fountain. This portrait was painted from a photograph of the Rear Admiral, taken in October of 1862. DuPont’s papers are kept at the Hagley Museum $3,000-5,000
