I can't add much, Matt, but they were at 2 King Alfred's Place, Broad Street from 1885-1896,then 2 Cambridge Street, 1897-1898. Mostly rifles built on Field's patents for a drop down barrel action and later a Martini style action. Looks like late in the company's life it was owned or being managed by C.B. Engels, though Field was still filing patents the company was using in 1898. He filed or jointly filed a half dozen patents, 5 on single shot rifles and the last was for a rifle magazine.
