The monograms engraved on the handle are those of Mary Shrimpton (1667-1746) and those of her granddaughter Elizabeth Cotton (1722-1782) and her husband Jonathan Hastings (1708/9-1783), who married in 1750. The present example is the fifth known spoon from this set. Three are in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and one is in the Garvan Collection at Yale University. A tankard made by Coney for Mary Shrimpton is also in the collection of Yale University.
