The revolver is associated with Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Rowe, commanding Officer NSW Corps of Engineers. Rowe more than likely purchased the Webley Pryse Revolver during a visit to the United Kingdom during 1884-1885. This Revolver was also carried by his son Captain Harry Ruskin-Rowe, Sea Transport Service, Australian Army Service Corps, Australian Infantry Force in the First World War and his grandson 411389 Pilot Officer Anthony Thomas Ruskin-Rowe 452 Sqn, Royal Australian Air Force (Spitfire). During Raid 55 on Darwin, Pilot Officer Rowe was shot down and killed in action on the 20th of June 1943. The revolver was discovered on his body when his aeroplane, BS 174 crashed.
