Albert Dickinson ....The inside flap of the cartridge box bears the name Dickinson in period India ink. A modern tag attached to the cartridge box, origin unknown, gives a first and middle initial with a regiment attributing ownership to "A. J. Dickinson/2nd NJ." HDS lists this private simply as "Albert Dickinson," no middle initial. Todd, in State Forces, says that in May 1861 the 2nd NJ was armed with "M1842 or converted muskets," therefore this attribution can only be partially corroborated as, indeed, this musket is a "conversion." Barrel and lock have a light brown patina mixed with brown stains. A piece of wood missing behind the hammer. Buttstock with dark opened-grained wood with some nicks and dings mixing in. A very sharp cartouche on the left flat. Also marks on the comp of stock at the buttplate.
