Scope and Content

Three pomade jars and small sterling trinket tray. this small tray with the monogram "MKB" would have belonged to my paternal gandmother, Margaret Berg Kessberger Monogramed "BA" for the Allen family, related through a second marriage to the Leach family I believe. I know very little about the Allens. Some of the coin silver is also monogramed wth "A"."M" for Moss. "KM" possibly for Katherine (Catherine C. Moss) Moss, the use of C or K seeming initially to have been interchangeable, and "MKB" for Margaret Kessberger Berg, my paternal grandmother.
