SHENANDOAH VALLEY OF VIRGINIA WEAVING ARTICLES, UNCOUNTED LOT, comprising two loom reeds, one bearing initials of "JC" for John Coffman, a reedmaker in Shenandoah County; and a collection of oak netting shuttles and yellow pine pegs from the John Zigler homestead in Timberville, VA. 19th century. Longest reed 46" LOA.
Catalogue Note: John Zigler (1786-1856) and wife Elizabeth Kline Zigler (1789-1870) moved from Lebanon Co., PA to northeastern Rockingham Co. around 1810. They established a homestead on the banks of the North Fork of the Shenandoah River about six miles west of New Market, VA. They were among the earliest permanent settlers in this area which was then referred to as Williamsport, and later as Timberville. John Zigler established a thriving tannery, pottery, and hemp mill on his property, along with a sizable working farm. The property remained in the Zigler family until the death of Otto Zigler, the sole remaining direct descendent in 1988.
Very good overall condition, some of the netting shuttles with minor breakage and repair to their ends; the reeds with moderate usage wear but no noted breaks to the combs.
From the collection of Priscilla Blosser-Rainey, Timberville, VA.
Netting shuttles purchased at the M. Otto Zigler estate auction, Jeffrey S. Evans (T/A GVA), 1988.
