Title: Re: Old Photos of Henry Rifles
Post by: Sir Charles deMouton-Black on November 25, 2010, 04:46:16 PM: Here is a photo from the old days in British Columbia. Judge Begbie was the first judge in 1858 and sat until a month and a half before his death in 1894. He held a similar role to Judge Parker in the Indian Territories. Here he is with a group ??~~(while on court circuit.)~~?? Begbie is the bearded gentleman in tall boots sitting on the right. The fellow with the bowler in the center holds a Henry. I see at least two ML SxS shotguns.

PS: I looked up the archival source. The photo appears to be reversed in the book I scanned. The photo is titled "A group of colonial officials at rest during hunting..." at Grouse Creek. About 1870. The one with the Henry is Governor Frederick Seymour.

PPS: To narrow it down further, Seymour succeeded Sir James Douglas a Governor in 1864. He died in June of 1869.

http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/cgi-bin/text2html/.visual/img_txt/dir_119/d_02847.txt?D-02847

P.S; 29Jan11; I found further info on this photo. It was taken in The Cariboo during "The Grouse Creek War" in 1867, specifically, early in August. There was a public "meeting" in Richfield, now known as Barkerville, concerning an appeal to Judge Begbie over a disputed mining claim. Ironically the cases was decided against a party who had lobbied for a chage in the Gold Fields Act that now acted to his detriment. The threatened breach of the Queen's Peace was averted.

Post by: Henry4440 on November 26, 2010, 11:08:01 AM: Thanks for the pic, Sir Charles .

The problem is, when i search for pics with an Henry, i find out that most of these Henrys are 'Improved Henry Rifles'.
Like this one.

(http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b33/telerion/Wild%20West/First-Red-Feather-of-the-WingNezPerce.jpg)
But it is an 'Improved Henry'.
When you read the books of James Willard Schultz or Finn Burnett, they call an Improved Henry never a Winchester 66.
They wrote:.... he had a Henry Rifle. But what kind of a Henry?

(http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b33/telerion/Wild%20West/nn1158.jpg)

I think he is wearing the same clothes at in the pic no.7 from my first post.
It looks to me, that at the buttstock is a sling swivel. I didn't know a 66 with a sling swivel.
So it could be the Henry from pic no.7.

In a slightly similar vein, have you ever come across a photo of an iron framed Henry with a casehardened finish, rather than a blue finish?

Thanks

It might be hard to tell in an old B&W photo. After a bit of age casehardening takes on a silvery finish. I don't know how long that takes.

Post by: River City John on December 15, 2010, 08:45:12 AM: #6 of the gentleman in the mechanic's cap with his arms folded resting on the muzzle of his Henry has me curious as to the type of revolver on his hip. There may be a bit of stretching in the image, but that holster sure looks to have been made for a long barrel.

Nice pics, Lonesome. Thanks.

DJ, here is a pic of the Henry Rifle sn.2 .
It's just one of three known existing examples having case-hardened iron frames.
There is a Brass frame Henry Rifle with the sn.2 too.

Thanks so much for the photos of the case hardened iron frames. I can't see much of the case hardening, but I will take your word for it. At least I know now that my Uberti case hardened 'iron frame' is kind of authentic.

DJ, only the Henry sn.2 has a case hardened iron frame. It's not my word, but the word of the late Les Quick.
The two other Henrys are for comparison only.

New hat, shotgun chaps, new holster and a cartridge belt that looks like it's full of large caliber rifle ammunition set in wide cartridge loops. Great photo with a lot of cool stuff. It also looks like the glass plate negative may have been reversed when the photo was printed.

(http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b33/telerion/Wild%20West/51stIllinoisInfantryLookoutMt1864.jpg)

I think, quite certain, the left guy( sitting ), is holding a Henry Rifle.

In a letter to the President of the New Haven Arms Company, John H. Ekstand, Ordnance Sergeant for the 51st Illinois Infantry writes that he would like to get more Henry Rifles and that the Henry Repeating rifle is a “hobby” of his. This letter is dated November 2, 1863. “I take the liberty to inquire about your Rifle, as I have been an owner of one of them a long time, and through my agency twelve of them have been bought in the regiment and many more would have been bought had I been able to get them in any place, and if I do get any the price is very much increased. In the 51st Illinois it is many that will buy them, and the brigade and division both requested me to write to you for information and a price list and the different kinds made, and how many we can get, or when, and express charges from the factory to Stevenson, Alabama, and if we cannot get some good globe sights or if any telescope sights are made, and their cost. I have took pains to command, and also to bring them through. We have now four months pay due us and the boys will have the money ready to send by express to you when we can know how many we can get. We used your rifle in the Battle of Chickamauga with good effect, and it is undoubtedly the best gun in the service, far superior to the Spencer rifle or any other rifle, both here and in Europe, as I have served a long time in both armies; but better sights ought to be made for so good a rifle. I received ten rifles from Bowen in Chicago, but could not get any more just now. Cannot any heavier guns be made to order, or different calibre? Excuse my many enquiries. Your rifle is my “hobby” so the boys say, and I like to be able to give them all the information possible, and get as many Henry’s rifles in the Army of the Cumberland, so we could drive the Rebs from Chattanooga, so we could get something to eat.
