Louisa Duponts quail gun,my great grandma.Parker single trigger side by side 28gauge

I can tell you what adds to the gun's provenance and range of value is the documented story. Do you have pictures of your grandma using or holding the gun. Picture tells a thousand words. Also any stories you have that you can document really helps. Being that your family started off with a gunpowder mill tells an interesting story.

There are several folks here that no doubt are interested in small bore Parker's and they will help you out best they can.

I can say this and it could be misleading and as someone also suggested you might need to talk to an honest professional that specializes in gun appraisals. There is a 28 ga that has a strong grade and condition that is listed at $40k, again that is an asking price and not certain how that compares to your gun and it may or may not be a reasonable price expectation. Very hard to say. We were all just mentioning the other day that gun was on the market at that price and no takers for over a year so there is that.

Personally if you think your daughter would ever appreciate it or would even like to own and shoot her great grandmas gun then, you have a pretty obvious path. Great story though.
