Parker History-please participate

[Bill Murphy]

Bruce is correct in suggesting google and other search engines as well as ancestry.com to try to pick up a name reference. If the gun is identified by name or initials on the gun or in the letter, and is a competition type of gun, I would be willing to assist as would Chris Lien or the Reverend Drew Hause. Another source of name recognition is la84foundation.com. Their search function has helped me to identify many competition shooters and their background. Use the "Sporting Life" option for searching individual magazines. The Griffin and Howe research service is another source of information on original and subsequent gun ownership. Bob Beach at Griffin and Howe is our friend and an avid researcher and is in charge of the research files up there.
