Trying to locate an old friend

Post by William Greentaner »

I would like to inquire if anyone was familiar with a William (Bill) Wells. He used to manufacture armor under the name of Wolf's Head Armory in North Carolina. I used to assist him in the planishing work on some 14th century tooling he had purchased at an estate auction. If anyone could help me in getting back in contact with him I would be very grateful.

Sincerely,
SSG William Greentaner

I don't know him, but sometimes I can find people with internet searching. If you PM me anything you know about the guy that might help (a city where he used to live, name of wife or other family member, what hobbies he was into, approximate age, what he did for a living, where he went to school, no longer valid contact info,) I'll give it a shot.

Welcome and well come to the Archive, Staff Sergeant Greentaner, USA. May your stay with us be long and profit you even more than you hoped.

A quick Google only got me this relevant-looking excerpt from the Florilegium, which as you know is mainly as of the middle 1990s.

Sorry, but Lupus is no longer in business as Wolfshead Armory (I
assume you mean the Wolfshead that was based out of North Carolina and
then Florida) This is as of a convesation with Lupus about 6 months ago.
