PLease do send pictures. The first plate was made by Hulse & Adderley. The partnership was in business from 1869-75. Then it was taken over by William Alsager Adderley who was in business until at least the mid 20th century. The word 'England' in the mark indicates a date after 1891; however, H & A were in business before that. Because the copper engravings of the patterns were continued by W.A.A. there were times when the word 'England' became part of the mark. It is especially important to see a photo of your second plate. The description isn't good enough for providing information. Thank you!
