I think they were still in Hartford then.
I have a friend, whose mother's maiden name is one or the other, though which, I can't remember.
Edgar, No I can't say as I do remember them (but there's a whole bunch of things that I can't remember). Also, I don't remember ever hearing of "C & T"
(which may be one of the above). I do know that Colt FA CO. was & I believe still is in Hartford. I believe that if I had been in charge of C&T I would have changed it's name.

Best Regards, George
