Dean, Yes some of that engraving has been ascribed to Joseph Loy. He was at The Ithaca Gun Co. in Ithaca from 1890-95 then with Remington in Ilion from 1895 on. He apparently sub-contracted with the Lefever Arms Co. and The D.M. Lefever, Sons & Co. shops along with his brothers Clarence and Henry. I know he was a personal friend of Frank LeFever who worked alongside him at Remington in the 1930's.
