My DHE 16 O frame has "Jos. Gray, Atlanta, Ga." on the oval and the the letter has it going to Anderson's harware store in Atlanta. Personally, I think that is great, and it lets me dream that it was someones plantation quail gun back in simpler times.

I would be trying to identify Jos. Gray, but that's just me.

It might better not to know....you'd be disappointed plenty if you found that Mr. Gray was a wingnut salesman who is 36 years old.....
