Weekend At Farm :Plantation Key, Colonial Button and Small Shoe Buckle

[Dismal Swampy]

Got a chance to skip town for the weekend and hunt at my wife's family someplace/ farm.
I believe I dug up the key to the original house built sometime pre revolutionary war.
Pluse buckle and tombac dandy button were icing on the cake !
Still working on identifying a couple of the other pieces.
There was a female academy built in the yard around 1830 so key coukd have been for that. I believe its to big for a smokehouse key.( 7" length)

I've never seen a smokehouse that had a lock on it's door , BUT I did see a smokehouse that had greasy auto parts stored in it ! what a shame to do that BUT it still smelled smoky !
