[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 720891, member: 85"]It's a beautiful watch. If it has indeed been in your family since the civil war, then further research is warranted. I found this which you may already have seen. [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Johnson_(watch_maker)[/URL] Since both afantiques and bakersgma don't like the marks, I was wondering if Hanau did gold marks. The only thing I can find is about gold boxes from the 1700s. I did not read the article. Everything else I'm finding is for silver marks. [URL]http://www.silversocietyofcanada.ca/sites/default/files/Seelig.pdf[/URL] Lastly, you may want to search this group for other threads about Joseph Johnson and maybe make inquiries here.
