Hi Phil- looks interesting, I thought it was a Burke but no, that's not it. I see a motor there in the background, but I also see a fair amount of rust
that thing will keep you busy for a while

Motor and parts in back ground is off a delta drill press.mill has a 4 speed trans motor..little rust won't hurt anything

EDIT: I believe the ones I linked to are true "Hand Millers" with the table x-feed controlled by a lever. Meant for repetitive tasks.

Your photo however, seems to have a large knob at the end of the table, but also has the hole where the lever would go. Maybe upgraded over the last 100 years or so?
