Any assistance appreciated.

 

I can see Yamato?? in the top section, and I see some numbers in the 2 smaller columns but I am not sure of the correct translation/meaning

 

Thanks for looking

Matt's right. The address are from Aoshima, way up north, and from pre-War Sendai, Miyagi.

The Yamato kami is pretty clear, but I can't read the following character, somethiing Michi,

大和守芳  Yamato no Kami Yoshichika (Yasuchika)  芳道 Yoshimichi ?

 

宮城縣仙台市元柳町五二 Miyagi-ken, Sendai-shi, Motoyanagi-chō 52 

 

青島市魚山路二十一号甲  Qingdao-shi, Yushan-lu #21   (sometimes spelled Tsingtao)
毛呂正                                 Moro Masa?
 
The top address is pre-war Sendai (in Miyagi prefecture) 
The bottom address is Qingdao in China. 
Can't read the second kanji of the personal name, but the family name of the owner(?) is Moro
 
The smith doesn't appear in any of my reference books. Looks to me like Yoshichika. Yoshi can also be read as Yasu. The second kanji of the smith could be 道 michi, as others above have suggested.
