Considering the condition of the gun it wouldn’t surprise me if that engraving was as old as the gun.

I'll have to join as a member and order a letter to find out.
I did find a Webster Gatchell here in Maine that was born in 1876 and died in 1959, so that may be him.
In any case, my PH will now forever be called "Webster"!
