Looking for information and value on two Colonial type pictures. Under magnification, there aren't any dots to suggest they are prints. They look metallic, and the size is 14x11.5 inches. Who were Benjamin and Philadelphia Greenwood, and why were they memorialized with brasses in the Church of St. Mary Cray?

I have a late 19th century Japanese Shibayama two-panel screen with applied bone and mother of pearl birds and foliage, red lacquer inset, and a carved wood frame. There are some inlay losses from moving, and it could use proper cleaning. I have the pieces that broke off. What is the estimated worth of this piece, and how can I find a new home for it?

I have a Bee clock in a tin that mentions a prize medal awarded at the PARIS EXPOSITION 1878. The tin has a bee on it, a picture of the New York factory at the bottom, and it is patented April 23rd 1878. The clock winds without a key, is a one-day bee, works in any position, and is warranted to keep good time. What is the history and value of this clock?
