This type of cast iron kettle was used by pioneer families in the 1900's on open fires.
It provided a source of boiling water, in or mainly outside the kitchen of homesteads in the rural areas
Early homes often had an open fire containing a fountain, buckets and kettles that hung from a hook in the fireplace.
These containers supplied hot water for cooking, washing and cups of tea. The fountain was placed on hob until needed and then hung over fire.
