This article also includes a list of gunsmiths of Lancaster County in the period from 1728-1863. The original list was prepared by S.E. Dyke in 1959 which was most likely created from the 3x5 cards that are available in the resource entitled "Card index of gunsmiths documented by SE Dyke" . The list appearing in this article is a revision of that list by C.B. Grove in 1969.
