Walter Baker is 33 in 1870. Born in England and works in the armory. He lives in German Flats, NY with his wife and 4 children.

William H Baker is 44 in 1880. He lives in Manlius, NY with his wife and 7 childern, the youngest a boy named Walter. William H Baker is listed as being born in NY.

Of course, I could have these 2 names very confused...

Worcester is interesting. It is the home of the Bay State gun company which was later purchased by Hopkins & Allen. Bay State used several patents by W.H. Davenport, who later sold single barrel shotguns under his own name.

By the way. Nice work finding the trip hammer patent.

Drew,

I like the price list. I have seen similiar, but never so complete.
