Hi there,
I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out. My dad has a rifle/musket that he was told belonged to an ancestor and was used in the american revolutionary war.
Near the barrel is an engraved plate that says "S Harvey and Son Warranted". I'm having problems finding a manufacturer by that name.
Also, it does not have a flintlock firing mechanism but a ball.. and cap? I believe that's what he said.
I have pictures I can post if necessary.
Any information that someone can give me would be great - or even pointing me in the right direction to find the necessary info.
Thank you much!
