Just to remind, Gentlemen that, items aged beyond the end 19th century do not fall within the scope of this European forum (as per front page sticky)

Right. The Werth and Weyersburg marks definitely had 19th century use and my speculation from the start was that the object sword is a precursor to the 20th century items. There shouldn't be an issue with using later items as a path of evolution to determine who the ancestors were.
