Brittany Keech CNN Said she didn’t think much of the card at first because she was busy with her children and her daily commotion.
“I thought it was weird that I was getting postcards because no one sends postcards these days.” “I went. ‘Well, this is different.’ ‘
She later noted that the card was postmarked on October 29, 1920. It had his address, Belding, Michigan, but was written in obscure writing to someone named Roy Mc McQueen.
“Cousins,
Hope you get this right. We’re pretty good but Mom has a horrible knee injury. It’s terribly cold here. I have just finished my history lesson and will go to bed very soon. My father is shaving and my mother is telling me your address. I have to stop one night. Hope grandma and grandpa are ok. Don’t forget to write to us – Roy still improves his pants. “
It was signed by Flossy Burgess.
The card has a Halloween theme featuring a black cat, a broom, a bat, a goose and an owl, a cane woman and a jack-o-lantern in a witch’s hat.
On the back is a George and Washington Washington one percent stamp and a gleaming postmark says Jamestown, but the state appears tangled with some kind of sticker.
Keach, 30, said she did not know what was delayed in the card, which was mailed decades before her birth.
“I have two wonderful women who are helping me investigate their genealogy.”
Some people have posted old documents in the comments section that could help solve the mystery.
Keach wanted to return the card to a family member and said they had received a lead from a potential relative.
