<< Where I come from "a pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter" so a gallon of water is 10lbs. >> Current standards for English weight and volume comes from the fact that water does weigh 8 lbs. per gallon. 32 oz. = 1 quart, 4 quarts (128 oz.) = a gallon, etc. Therefore, 128 oz., and 1 gallon, also = 8 lbs.
