Only thing I know is Green River Rifle Works made reproductions of the Hawken style rifle (I think they offered a Leman style rifle as well) back in the 70's and went out of business @ 1980. Had a good reputation but were done in by supplier and credit problems.
 
Your gun was made by Niell Fields. https://grrw.org/green-river-rifle-works-barrel-markings/

Value depends on bore and lock condition, and if the finish on stock and metal is in good shape. Low end probably $800-$900 (assuming everything works, clean bore) but search the classified area for past sales -trade rifles and full stock hawkens.
 
I think it was GRRW that had a branch or relocated to Adelaide South Australia or maybe Melbourne cant recall. I mean they have real' Buffalos" but up Northern Territory not round those towns They where Water Buffalos once raised nr Darwin ( Meat supply for the Garrison but many went Ferral ).
