Ran across a TC Hawken Percussion .45 today that had the patch box on the stock engraved with Antionette. Was this a model or something that previous owner added?

If old guns could tell their stories!Previous owner, could be his wife, daughter, the gun’s name or even the owner’s name.
Inherited a TC .50 Hawken last year. Getting ready to stamp my late friend’s name, date of birth and date of death on it. I added the brass nails around the buttplate, patchbox and wrist like he wanted to do. Based on a rifle his grandfather had in his collection. That original is at the Kit Carson Trading Post on the Philmont Scout Ranch outside Cimmaron NM.
Every used gun has a story, not often complete.
The names I've calle...... given my guns should not be permanently inscribed on them!
It was obviously King Louies gun.
