He was the president and director of W.J. Kingsland Incorporated located at 24 State St. in New York.

Found that on Google, not much but a start anyway.

Shot in a shoot sponsored by Ernest Von Lengerke at the Orange County, NJ Traps in 1912. This from the search function on la84foundation.com.

He does not seem to have shot Interstate Association birds between 1913 and 1922.

It is very likely this is him, I think he was an export agent for A.H. Fox Guns.
Thank you!
