Description

 This was passed down in the Swasnon family of swedish descent, to the oldest son, as far back as be remembered, for generation and generations.  It was also carried through the civil war, by Peter Swanson of Bishop Hill Illinois, a Swedish settlement.  He was in the 57th regiment,and served throughout General Sherman's campaign, which we will send documentaion.

That is as far back as I can trace the origns of this piece, I'm the last of the oldest sons of my family, so I have had this heirloom for many years.
