“Nelsonville Block” note on it.
The Nelsonville Block brick originated in Nelsonville and the Hocking Valley. The growth of brick-making was a part of the iron ore production of the Hocking Valley. Early blast furnaces in Hocking County date back to the 1850s. Wood was burned into charcoal which was used to heat furnaces that in turn heated the iron so it could be reduced to ingots for shipping.
