This gun is signed on the side plate Jacob Schleppy. He was known to have lived in the Allentown,PA area and many of his descendants likely are amongst the current Schleppy families in PA and Colorado. The gun is attributed to the Allemaengle School, just north and west of Allentown and Lehigh, PA.
