Fantastic. Thank you very much. It was indeed a blackthorn walking stick. I'm passing on the information to a number of great great grandchildren. William James Barry came to America from Cork, and became a Harbor Captain in New York City. Died in 1921 at age 86.

Howard James Silver mark on Cane
Inherited this cane from my GGgrandfather. It is supposedly a SHILLELAGH and has a silver band around the handle and silver cap/tip. Best I can decipher the mark is Howard James, but beyond that have nothing. Here is the photo of the markings. https://www.smugmug.com/app/organize/People/Shillelagh T...
