No relation, just fortuitous. The gun is from Westchester, New York. My forebears had long been in Wisconsin, Iowa and the Dakotas by then, moving west 1820-1840. They were on the northern plains during the Spirit Lake Massacre and the Sioux Wars.

Edgar those must have been fascinating times when we had those great American companies and the finest craftsmen in the world. I like some Swiss watches and that whole industry started copying American designs with cheaper labor. Now where are the Elgin’s, Hamilton’s , Illinois and Waltham’s ?
We’ll take Colt Patent Firearms Company out here with open arms.
Buy American.
