Bill, I just ran this by the "Fact-checkers" over on FaceBook and they said your statement could be misleading, so I got my 1962 edition of "Minutes of the Lower Forty" and it turns out those fact-checkers know their stuff ()... The Parker .410 with full and full chokes with the semibeavertail fore end and single trigger belonged to Hentracks Hennessy.
