Once again thanks a million.    I've been out grocery shopping but shall sit down now & work my way through all of it now.   I have a PC from a Welsh rellie which says " I think myself you you will be much better over there than here . Everything looks very black round here, colliers on strike .  I'm thankful you went away & David & Walter too."

Wales is a very pretty country, particularly now all the lead & coal mines have closed, I was born there but live in Canada now, but do enjoy going home every so often for a visit.

Thank you so much once again.

So they finally named their 6 month old son Wilfred.  She must have gone to her brother Peter for Xmas if it was Dec 1918 as her husband David had just died, 8 Nov 1918.  Maybe she stayed in the US after that & didn't return to Canada.   I didn't know of her bro Peter either, so shall look him up now.  This is never ending, but great!

Thanks again.  Amberly.
