look under the Butt plate or barrel channel.Won the auction for a song, definitely an interesting 20 gauge.
Can’t seem to find the builders name at all.
Listed as W.D. Carlton and it’s a Woodstock V ?
Anyone ever see one like this before?

A gentleman on another forum found the information I was looking for,
Wales D Carlton was a gunsmith in Woodstock Vermont before his death in 1861.
So the smoothbore was made prior to 1861.
