One of the cannons is marked on the trunions as being made by C Algers of Boston in 1861 and the other is my Ames in 1842 of Springfield Mass.
Neither seems to have been marked on the muzzles.
They are maintained by the Pershing Rifles Company of the schools ROTC department.
I got the info from an article in the Newsletter of theMilitary History Center of the Carolinas "Netcall"

Hey, thanks for the pointer to the Netcall article on the cannons. I read the article and learned a lot.
