Looking for information on a knife manufacture

I have a folding knife with a single 3.5" blade and bone scales one of the bolsters is depressed as a thumb rest. The knife is marked "Lafayette Cutlery" I believe that is late 19th to early 20th century but not sure. I can't seem to find any information on the manufacture that is helpful. So anything anyone could tell me would be helpful even if is to point me in a direction to look.
