Description

Three letters and two photos. Two of the letters are written from Blanche Jourdan to Betty Stuart about receiving genealogical records: pictures and newspaper clippings regarding the Webster family, maternal relatives that connect the two. One is dated Mar. 18, 1994 and the other Mar. 25 2010. The third letter is typed, addressed to Mary A. Wilkinson on the envelope (in the letter addressed as Mamie) from Colonel Basil D. Spalding. The letter describes a newspaper clipping from "The Sun" about "our great-grandfather." Elizabeth and Genevieve are also mentioned. The typed letter is from September 5, 1964 and was sent to Havre de Grace, MD from Atlanta 5, GA. There are two photos: one of a country house with a barn taken when trees were bare. The description on the back reads: "View of Dr. John [O]appington's home today as seen from Blanche Scott Jourdan's home (mother of Libby + my cousin)" The second photo shows four women. On the back is written: "March 2, 2012. Blanch Jourdan and daughters: Libby + Bonnie. My cousins (Webster + Bissell)"
