Can someone please provide me with a place to start? An ancestor of Craft Jackson has contacted me about getting an original duplicated.
Roy has pics of both rifles that I emailed to him.ehoff said:From the ALR website.
Craft Jackson was a NC guinsmith of the Jamestown School 1810-1820.He was one of the earliest known makers of this school.
One feature found on his rifles is the stylized "shooting star" finial on the patchbox. This style of patchbox is associated with Moore, Randolph & Guildford Counties.The patch box is also side opening hinged along the bottom.
There is also photos of a rifle attributed to Craft Jackson shown with very simliar feature to the one shown here.
