I'm not really sure to be honest. All three were stored locally from my 
kde-3.5 days (I stopped using gpg quite some time ago). Best guess is that one 
key was my own and the other two imported from key servers. It's likely that 
at least my own key would have been made with a version of gpg from before 
that gpg-2.01 incompatibility mess.
