Absolutely!
But the word purple was used back then to indicate pink by most of the seed companies that were introducing new varieties.
If you google Victory Seeds you'll see Mike has a who section devoted to the varieties that the Livingston Seed C, to name one company, introduced in the late 18 hundreds.
