The link you posted Joe was very interesting.I did know some of the story regarding C.E.Tisdall(not Tisdale) and his starting in business here and later entering local politics and becoming Mayor.The interesting bit was gleaned from your link regarding W.H.Tisdall being located near and having dealings with W.W.Greener.I have a 10 bore Greener, circa 1897, that has the following on the rib: W.W.Greener "The Trap Gun" 68 Haymarket, London. Made Expressly For C.E.Tisdall, Vancouver. I have seen several guns over the years with this same wording. Some suggested that their gun was his personal property but I believe they were guns ordered from Greener,for sale in his sporting goods business.Your link seems to support this.


Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought stupid,than open it and confirm.
