Hello the Camp
     Is Charles King of the 'Kings Patent Loading Gate' the same Charles King who shared patents With D.B. Wesson in the early 1870's?

The designer of the King's Patent loading gate was Nelson King, who succeed B. Tyler Henry as Winchester's gun shop superintendent in 1865 or early 1866.
