Hello Brandon;
     I don't know if you've tried this yet or not, but if you go to the
"Google Search" page and check the headings, (you may have to click on
"MORE", and choose "Patents", you can search patents. I put in the words
"McCoy lubricator" and came up with 5 pages worth of patents by Elijah
McCoy, some dating back to the 1870's. The ones I looked at were
displacement type lubricators of varying designs. I have done a lot of
research using this on-line tool, and one can get a lot of clues about where
people lived and who they worked for at the time of the patents. Good luck
on your research!

who may be able to help.
thanks in advance.
