You can let the OP know that those are one of many marks used by the Barbour Silver Company of Hartford, Connecticut. Established in 1892 by Samuel L. Barbour, Isaac J. Steane and J.L. Daigleish, succeeding to I.J. Steane & Co, Barbour Hobson Co and Barbour Bros Co. They took over some of the machinery and stock of the Hartford Silver Plate Co. and ultimately became part of the International Silver Co. in 1898.

Yes, it will have been silver plate on a base metal alloy.
