This fascinating article from post Civil War Trenton really spurred my imagination. Could it be that the clay that was shipped to a Michigan pottery be from Hamilton's historic Clay Pits? The fact that the clay was shipped out of state begs the question: Was the clay from the Hamilton Clay Pits also sent to Steubenville Ohio, which was also a pottery center? Perhaps there will be another article on the subject. I will keep searching.
