International Riflemen: America

  R.C. Coleman (1840-?)

1875: Member of the USA team at Dollymount, Ireland

Harper's Weekly, 10 July 1875
"Mr Roswell C. Coleman was born at Goshen, Orange County, New York, December 3, 1840. Up to last September Mr. Coleman had never fired a shot with a rifle. The International match stirred him up to practice, and his progress has been sufficiently rapid to win him a position on the team this year."
