G'day,

I live in Qld, Australia.

My family came to Australia before 1854.

I have a couple of little anvils my dad gave me. One of which he said was brought here from England by our ancestor who was a carrier / teamster by profession, he wasnt sure which anvil.

They are both small about 2 kilos in weight and one stands about 5 1/2 inches high and is around 10 1/2inches long, it has a stamp John Brooks but i cant make anything else out. This anvil is shaped a little taller and shorter than than the style of anvils i am used to seeing.

The other one is along similar lines to the large old anvils i have seen on stations in outback australia all my life.

It is 12 inches long and is also 5 1/2 inches high, the only markings are a large

2 2 stamped on the left side.

Just wondering if this means anything and if someone could tell me which is likely to be the really old one.

That's a tricky one - does it say Sheffield. Lookinging around on the web there seems to have been a John Brooks Anvil Manufacturer in the West Midlands. There are a few Anvil dedicated message boards - they may be able to help. Here is a YouTube clip of one being used - not sure if you can see In Australia? Best wishes

I know this is a long shot, but I'll try anyways.  I live in West Virginia, USA.  Found an old anvil and am trying to identify its age and maker.  It is clearly marked "Sheffield" on the side, with 1-1-18 for weight on the other side, although the weight marking do not seem to have the deep punchmark of a Mousehole.  I can't make out the remaining markings above the Sheffield.  It appears to end in  "...AMBLES"    From the listings here, it doesn't match any of the manufacturers.  Could anyone offer some help please?  Thanks.

Super.  That fits.  Moss and Gambles Brothers looks very much like what could have been stamped on that anvil.  Unfortunately I can't find anything on the 'web that talks about them producing anvils, or when they were in production of anything but edged tools and knives.  I've love to learn a little more.  So Neddy, please lead me on.
