AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR MUSKET CARRIED BY GILES LAWREY, CULPEPPER COUNTY, VIRGINIA MILITIA.
Description: AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR MUSKET CARRIED BY GILES LAWREY, CULPEPPER COUNTY, VIRGINIA MILITIA. American stock flintlock musket from the Revolutionary War that was carried by Giles Lawrey, Culpepper County Militia, Culpepper County, Virginia. This musket would likely have been ordered by the Culpepper County, Committee of Safety for the Continental Army. It is stocked in American cherry following the French 1763 pattern using a Belgium proof marked barrel, an American forged flintlock. The barrel bands, triggers, trigger guard, side plate and butt plate appear to be American made but could have re-styled and fitted from 1728 French musket or similar musket parts. The barrel measures 42 1/2" and the overall length is 58” with ¾” bore. The musket descended through the Lawrey Family in Culpepper County, VA. I purchased the musket as a part of the Yost Collection in 1977. The musket comes with a research document about Giles Lawrey . It is in nice condition and has been in my Revolutionary War collection for more than 50 years. It is the one I always kept! Nice identified musket from America’s Revolutionary Wars! Collector’s Note: Purchased form the Charlie Yost Collection, Albemarle County, VA in 1977 who purchased this musket from the Lawrey Family. SOLD Antique: Yes |
