A Ruger Old Army isn't quite the same as a Remington 1858 New Model Army, a Ruger Blackhawk or Vaquero isn't quite the same as a Colt Peacemaker and a 4 screw Ruger Blackhawk or old Vaquero isn't quite the same as a 3 screw Ruger Backhawk or a new Vaquero.

Yes but there is at least some lineage there. The Old Army is based on the Remington '58, just as the original Blackhawk and Single Six borrowed
heavily from the Colt Model P. Never heard of a 4-screw Blackhawk but there is also defined lineage from Old Models to New Models.
There is absolutely no lineage between the original Henry, which was produced by Winchester, and the currect Henry Repeating Arms Co. None. Not the family, not the guns, nothing. Henry's current guns are not based on anything, though some to try to mimic the original slightly cosmetically. Their only tie to the original Benjamin Tyler Henry is the name only.
