These keys have a metal identification engraved tag that state: Alfred O. Blaisdell 49 Point Street Providence, Rhode Island. Presently a renovated old factory stands there with business offices.
 
These keys and others that I will be listing were found in the abandoned house of Ralph and Lillian Blaisdell (1861-1947) here in St. Augustine, Florida.  
 
If you are a Blaisdell family member these keys are historically significant towards your family’s history.  The Blaisdell family has a storied and dynamic history starting with the Ralph Blaisdell ( 1607- 1649)   one of the earliest founders of Boston,Ma.
 
Interesting enough Ralph Blaisdell (1861-1949)  died exactly 300  years in St. Augustine, Florida  from  the original Ralph Blaisdell.
 
 
Please take an opportunity to view the many other Blaisdell and Osgood family artifacts that I will list in my shop almost on a weekly basis in my shop.
