We have had the following vase for as long as I can remember and no one can remember where it came from or if it holds any value
Anyone that can help identify it would be much appreciated

Closeup pictures of the bottom and mouth, and an overall view would be needed for evaluation. Best would be if they were taken near a window, in natural daylight, to see true colors.
Basically, the mark is a Tongzhi reign mark (see Ming-Qing emperors), but it is likely spurious. This type of mark is usually associated with 20th century items.
