I [GURE 6. — Frederick Jones' wine-bottle seals showing matrix variations: i, initials from 

 single matrix, with right side of "I" poorly formed (same die as fig. 7, left); 2, initials 

 from separate matrices, with large serifs on "F" and small serifs on "J"; 3-5, initials from 

 separate matrices, with small serifs on both letters; 6. 7. initials from separate matrices, 

 with heavy serifs on both letters. Seal 5 came from Pit A; all others from Pit B. The 

 use of single-letter matrices suggests a 17th-century date for the bottles' manufacture, 

 while the presence of various die combinations makes it probable that the bottles were 

 not all made at the same time. It is likely that the bottles were among Jones' posses- 

 sions when he emigrated to Virginia in 1702.
