Restocked Bedford County, PA rifle?

I made a new web page about what looks to me like a re-stocked Bedford, with the metal parts being made by Jacob Snider, with maybe a little help from his brother Tobias. What do you think? Here's the link:

Interesting! Thanks for posting this. Several things are similar to my George Fay, Jacobs teacher, rifle. The engraving of the side plate is very similar. As are the little silver inlays on the wrist.

I can't help much with your question, but I sure enjoyed your page layout.
