P.L. Keyser
Company Names, addresses, dates1:
P.L. Keyser, B south n 3rd East (1865)
Notes:
The census for DC lists Peter L. Keyser, born 1842 in Germany, but he was
listed as a physician. It's possible he put his name on a bottle for
mineral water that he prescribed for his patients. It seems more likely
that this bottle refers to a different P.L. Keyser, as it doesn't seem
to be old enough to be from he era when people thought soda water had
curative powers.
