I see they are thinking of putting some items on display,  presumably not the bit about “nibbled away by mice”.  ;D ;D ;D

Read about this and immediately thought, "This is something RootsChatters could be able to solve!".  If they gave us a bit more detail we could put our heads together and come up with a solution, I'm sure.

I do hope thy find someone who is related, what lovely letters

I have a box of letters my husband sent me before we were married, I suspect they might well be thrown away, we wrote in between visits but he didn't keep the letters I wrote him, we started off as pen friends as I had met him on holiday 60 years ago this August, as we only saw each other twice a week there was always a letter in between, we lived about 30 miles away from each other, I have started to re read them, memories !!
