OK, since the thread has been revived, I'll add these. There is the same box plate that I posted above, and 5 other plates I've found since then.

Lol me too. Its got character. Interesting to speculate about how it ended up in the fire.
 
What is the very first item in your post from 02/18/12? It looks like a blank oval plate.

It's got a name on it. Thomas McCrae is scripted on it. I looked him up & he was from Tawneytown MD. It has four hooks on the back that are bent over. I'm thinking it's a breast plate of some kind.
