Notes:
Hume Distillery Co. listed from 1875-1907. Interestingly, a Mooreland, Oklahoma newspaper dated November 10, 1905 contains an ad for The One Horse Saloon, which sold Richmond Club Whiskey. This could be considered an OK glass. The Hume Distillery Co. operated the Silver Creek distillery (RD #541, 8th district), near Richmond, KY. They also had offices in Cincinnati. The company later became a subsidiary of the Trust and added the S P Lancaster distillery to its operations. Company name timeline: The Hume Distillery Co.
