 Neumann Bros. shotguns were made by Neumann Freres, a Belgium gun making company from 1863 to 1957. "T.W.STAKE" is a trade name that I have not encountered before. In the 1890-1915 period, many firearms manufacturers would mark any name requested on their guns. It seems that by ordering a dozen guns and paying a few dollars extra to make the roll stamp a hardware store could sell guns "custom made" for them. If you have an idea where this gun may have been originally purchased, you might research this name. The "lighthouse" is probably the mark of the Leige Proof house.
