Silas Hurry’s comments about people thinking that the report on the
eighteenth-century ceramics from Michilimackinac was written by Garry Stone
and George Miller when it was written by J. Jefferson Miller and Lyle Stone
brought back memories of my first encounter with Marley Brown who I did not
know at the time. I was attending the SHA meetings in 1974 when Marley
came up to me and began ragging on me for a review of the 1972 Winterthur
Conference publication Ceramics in America. The review had been written by
J. Jefferson Miller and published in Historical Archaeology (Volume
VII:85-87). Marley assumed that I had written the review and had assumed
that Miller and Stone working in St. Mary’s City were the same as Miller
and Stone of the Michilimackinac monograph. Jeff Miller took quite a slice
at Deetz’s Plymouth plantation article, and it is still a good read.
Given the comments on my 1984 paper with Catherine Sullivan
“Machine-made Glass Containers and the end of Mouth-Blown Bottles” I may
need to rethink my approach and title my next paper “Tropic of Owens."
Peace,
George L. Miller
