George Alley. Gun-Maker.



George Alley

Gun-Maker

Dublin



                               Advertisement as printed in The Volunteer Journal of 1784.

          George Alley was the brother of the late Lewis (Lew) Alley who died in April 1783.

George Alley advertised the fact that he made his own barrels both smooth and rifled. He is recorded as having made rifles equal to those of Col.. Ferguson the Patentee!

            This blog should be read in conjuction with our "older post" dated 12/11/2015.

       We are always interested in any information with respect to the gunmakers of Ireland.
