I am currently trying to connect the family history I have to see if he is listed! I had never heard of the company until I bought a 1930's bottle with his Preparation label on it and I bought it for the family name. There is definitely always more to our family stories!!!

I'm putting together a chronology of the architectects Schermerhorn & Phillips in an effort to save a local 1917 school building they designed. In 1906 it appears they designed a factory building for Mr. Wampole... but as you note above, he killed himself.<br /><br />I'm beginning to wonder about these architects.... in 1902 they were designing a house for a Mr. Acuff who suddenly dropped dead due to "paralysis of the heart."<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your Walpole insights!Sabra Smithhttp://myowntimemachine.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6681636933577206972.post-57993915496632944962011-06-14T17:44:49.937-07:002011-06-14T17:44:49.937-07:00I am looking for information about Wampole's m...I am looking for information about Wampole's methods of procuring herbs for their products.

Inside I found a Wampole's C-2 Cetyloid-Compound box and went looking for more info (the box says for pain relief). I haven't been able to find anything like it online, but came across your blog looking for Wampole's. Thanks for the great post. <br /><br />(I also found two tintype photos inside the Wampole's box that, from what I can find and the clothes they are wearing, date back to 1850s era!)<br /><br />(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6681636933577206972.post-43285876703665022232011-05-27T19:13:11.865-07:002011-05-27T19:13:11.865-07:00My fiancé and I found a TON of old glass bottles o...My fiancé and I found a TON of old glass bottles off a trail in the woods of Oxford, GA this afternoon.

He had been actively taking his company for a ride. It seems he embezzled a goodly amount estimated at ranging from $200000.00 to as much as $900000.00. According to newspaper articles they never figured out what he did with the money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
