As noted at the time of its sale in 1987, the initials on the brand of this table may have been inverted and raises the possibility that the first owner was William G. Seaward (d. 1826). A sailmaker, Seaward died in 1826 and his inventory included a work table valued at $15. Furthermore, his estate papers include cash from the cabinetmakers Judkins and Senter, who stand as possible maker of this table. For a related form made in 1816 attributed to this firm, see Brock Jobe, Portsmouth Furniture (Hanover, New Hampshire, 1993), p. 270, fig. 66A.
