<p>[QUOTE="smallaxe, post: 9439435, member: 13430"]This is an item handed down in my wife's family that I'm trying to figure out which ancestor to connect it to. It appears to be a bracelet, sized for a girl or woman. It kind of looks like it was make out of a napkin ring. Do you agree, think it was made that way originally, or made out of something else? Inside is inscribed 3 April 1862, although there are no marriages or births in her family matching that date. In that time period, one branch of her family was extremely wealthy, and the other branch was middle to upper middle class. The T is a mystery, as none of her family's surnames in that period started with T. There are no hallmarks. Does it appear to be silver or plate? Some of the photos were before and some after a little bit of polishing. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]438458[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438459[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438460[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438461[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
