John Archer was a gunsmith in Wheeling (West) Virginia. One gun is dated 1882. Noted in my book on W Va Gunsmiths (3 editions). Sellers, American Gunsmiths, lists him in Wellsburg, north of Wheeling, w/o date or citation (way to go Selles).
I don't know of an American John Archer, Gunsmith. However, there were guns made by a gunsmith named Archer in London, at the end of the 18th century. One flintlock pocket pistol is illustrated in Antique Pistol Collecting by Frith and Andrews, published in 1960. Another, similar weapon is presently (15 April 2008) on sale in New Zealand. Good luck with your search.
