    It could very well be, since from what I have read (subject to correction) CM Christensen was sold around 1905, but I don't know who bought or operated the company.
    The change from Brockton MA to Providence, RI could be part of the answer...thanks for the clue.

    What an amazing gift to receive, and the timing could scarcely be better. Congratulations, and I hope you get many years of use from them before they are passed on to generation #4.
