Hotel HYGEIA seafood/appetizer fork

Category
Silver and Silver Overlay
Description

Found this seafood/appetizer fork at a yard sale. On the front it says HOTEL HYGEIA and on the back is HOLMES & EDWARDS XIV. It also has the numbers 73 and 77 on the back. From what I've researched so far, I believe it is silver plated. I had never heard of this hotel and discovered there is quite a rich and interesting history to it! It was located next to Fort Monroe in Old Point Comfort, VA. Edgar Allen Poe and President James Monroe stayed there! The hotel was ordered to be torn down in 1902. Based on that and the Holmes & Edwards XIV , I think this is from somewhere around 1892.

Silver and Silver Overlay
Condition
Excellent
Description

Silver toned trinket box measures 4 3/4 inches in length, 3 1/2 inches in depth, and 2 inches tall (including feet). The box contains 3 compartments, one is for a ring, the other 2 are open. There is red felt like material on the inside. The box is decorated with small flowers and has hinges for it's opening mechanism. The lid has a small lip all around it. It is non magnetic, on the bottom of the box there is the initial "M" in a diamond shape. There are NO other marketing on the box. I have cleaned it with Tarnex cleaner, took off the dirt and shined it a little but not much. The box was given to me by my mother, it was my father's mothers trinket box. She died in 1966 and was born in 1901 in Berwick, Columbia County, PA. This is where she lived her entire life as well. Her father was the town merchant. The only thing that I have been able to find out is
