Mr. Lomas;
Jack Rowe related to me in the past about a student of one of the classes he taught, who upon discussing where they lived as a boy discovered (very surprised and happy to learn) that they were only one street apart, although they did not know each other. I seem to recall that he said that student in his class was a qualified engineer who had moved to America as a engineer for a plumbing fixture company, and had later decided to take up gunsmithing. Are you that person?
Kindest Regards;
