Cogswell and Harrison rifle details

[PeteG]

Hi all,

As the title says, I’m looking to find out the dates of manufacture and any details pertaining to the original owner of my fathers cogswell and Harrison rifle.
I’ve sent emails, fb messages and had no repsonse from C&H or the apparent new owner in Ireland.

Does anyone have any contact details or suggestions how I may find out some history on thes particular rifle?

Cheers
