Union began as the Colton Manufacturing Company in 1893 in Toledo, Ohio. The name was changed to Union Fire Arms in 1905. They were bought out by Toledo Arms in 1913, and in 1916, Toledo Arms was bought by Savage. They made predominantly shotguns. You can probably assume yours was made between 1905 and 1913. DO NOTfire modern shotgun ammunition in it unless it has been inspected by a competent gunsmith first. It may bring a good price from a collector, if you want to sell it.
Union Fire Arms Co was in business from 1903 to 1910, then became Union Arms Co until 1913.
Not much information about this one. Probably a dealer in Toledo, Ohio, c. 1915-1950. Would be interested in seeing this gun or good pictures of it. We could possibly ID the manufacturer.
belived to be a German barrel do not heat when blueing due to back then barrels were sodered together not welded if overheated they will split apart.

Toledo is around 70km from Madrid, and is the most visited places in Spain. One of the reasons for it's popularity, is a very large beautiful cathedral that is the centrepiece of Toledo. There is lots more information on Toledo at Wikitravel, or you could contact Toledo's Tourist Bureau.
Made 1902-1917 in Toledo Ohio. NOT a Crescent Firearms gun, and relatively few were made. In mint original condition, can bring $300 plus, but in typical condition about $100. sales@countrygunsmith.net
From Vorisek's Shotgun Markings:Either a gun maker or a dealer or both located in Toledo, OH. Actual dates of operation not certain. Some reference to 1871 to 1916. While actual dates appear to be 1915 to sometime in the early 1950's. May be 2 different companies.Whoever made or sold it, it will most like fit into the general category of "utility shotguns" and be more valuable as a mantle decoration than as a firearm.
Several models made from 1902-1917, would have to know more information to evaluate it. Probably no more than $350. Parts are difficult to find. Try www.e-gunparts.com
