Zaddock Shields, Taylor County VA 1840s 1860s
I have a large four drawer chest, Federal/Empire Style, made in the 1840s-1850s by Zaddock Shields.He signed his name in one of the drawers. He is listed on the 1860 census of Taylor County Virginia as a "cabinet maker."Any descendants or family members desiring a photograph please email. His name is signed in brown ink with his own hand. It is quite a beautiful piece of furniture work.
