Brimingham Bayonet Maker
I had run across an article on Enfield bayonets a while back that when I went back to read it again, it had vanished into cyberspace. The article mentioned a Birmingham bayonet maker named Robert Hughes. I was wondering if any one knew anything about this maker and what marks were on the bayonets they produced.

"I hope to live long enough to see my surviving comrades march side by side with the Union veterans along Pennsylvania Avenue, and then I will die happy." - James Longstreet at a Memorial Day Parade in 1902.
