[Researcher]

Col. Gardner's book, American Gunmakers, doesn't list a T.J. Parker, but does list a Thomas Parker in Oberlin, Lorain County, Ohio, in the 1850s.

That would make sense. Vincent style rifles were very common in Ohio at that time. I have one in .32 cal that will shoot dime size groups at 25-yards.
