Dear Keith,
I think the best bet would be to reach out to the Mercer Museum here in
Doylestown, Henry Mercer recorded door, wall, and shutter panels of
historic Bucks County homes and Meetinghouses, i cannot put my hands on
my
copy but the Mercer museum/Bucks County Historical Society certainly has
his papers in the library holdings including plaster casts that he made.
He really was an amazing man.

Here's a link:

Best wishes,
kev
