Notes: We have two other Carr China topmarks on this site that were used at high schools. One is for Grafton High School, and the other is for an unknown BHS '32.

Like the BHS '32, our best theory is that this china with the Class of "51" topmark for Parsons HIgh School was likely a gift from the senior class to the school. But it is certainly a possibility that the plates were gifts of some kind for the graduating class.

There are Parsons High Schools all over the United States, but there was a Parsons High School in Parsons, W.V., located 42 miles southeast of Grafton.
