I have a sword with William A. Cook-actually it reads: Wm. A. Cook. and is written in Old English on the sword.
It appears to be around the mid to upper 1800's and has many Mason and Catholic Christin engraving on it. I am with a ministry that reaches out to at risk youth and this is a item that has been donated for our auction in October. I live in Winter Haven Florida and would be quite happy to have this authenticated if it might be worth the effort to improve its value for auction. The sword looks closest to the style of: Knights of St John Sword.
Thank you for any help you might be able to offer us as we endeavor to reach out to hurting families.
