Wondering if anyone could tell me the maker of this mold? Also, I know this has nothing to do with the mark, but can anyone tell me what kind of soldier he is?

That would be tin, not silverplate. No doubt the mark is for the Williamsburg Restoration. Google them, there will be a website.

As for your comment re type of soldier, to my eye he looks to be an infrantryman, European, circa 1700-1800. The bayonet was only introduced in about 1700 into the British army
