Confederate wooden canteen with an unusual turned wood spout. On one side is an old label that reads REBEL CANTEEN MADE OF WOOD FROM CAPT. W. N. JONES. My research finds a possible match with Captain William N. Jones who served in the 106th Pennsylvania infantry. Captain Jones was a member the GAR Post #4 (P.A.Williams) in Latrope , Pennsylvania and it makes sense that this canteen could have been displayed in that post at one time. The 106th Pennsylvania fought in most of the campaigns of the Army of the Potomac taking heavy causalities at Antietam, Gettysburg, and Spotsylvania Court House. Captain William N. Jones passed away on September 20, 1901 and is buried in the Wildwood Cemetery in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
