Thanks Chris, I too found a reference to them as "Dixies". I'll attach a pair of photos I got from the net of them in service. Although I now know they are not gun related, I would like to find some information as to what handle was used to lift the lids off, noting that there are a pair of different size footman loops on the lid.
