I have my grandfathers 16 gauge shotgum made in Ashland Kentucky by Ben Williamson & co. It says Pat may 14 1901.

My grandfather was born in 1897 and in 1908 his father said it was time for him to own a shotgun. He put him on the plow horse and rode all the way up to Portsmouth Ohio to a gun store and bought this new gun for $2.50 .

Yes, not only have I heard of it, but I have one as well. Ben Williamson began a hardware store on Greenup Avenue in Ashland, KY. At one point in history, Williamson was a U.S Senator. Ben Williamson's father founded Williamson, WV. Unfortunately, I have little additional information on the gun itself.
