All these pictures of Annie with the Cashmore, the Lancasters, and even an L.C. Smith are very interesting. However, the 1902 Grand American at Live Birds results posted in early publications and reposted by Reverend Doctor Drew state that Annie shot a Parker in that shoot. Research shows that her Parker was delivered just before the shoot. Although her hubby was not shown on the results list under his real name, he also ordered a Parker that was delivered just before the shoot, just a few days from the delivery of Annie's gun. I have PGCA letters on both guns and the similarity of the time line indicates that both guns were ordered for the 1902 shoot. Maybe Drew can look at the participant list for the 1902 shoot and identify Frank by a nom de fusil. I can't, and assume that maybe Frank didn't shoot, even though he ordered a Parker with that shoot in mind.
