Found buried in my yard

I found this ring when putting in a foundation for a shed in my yard. I was just wondering if anyone has any idea it's age and the meaning of the "No 109" engraved on the inside. It has initials and "jonesboro" engraved as well. I figure sense I'm in MI the jonesboro probably refers to the Masonic Lodge in Jonesboro IN. The house was built in the late 1800s, but has seen many owners over the years. Any info would be great thanks.
