"The cards were addressed to my paternal grandmother, Mrs. Louis Achzehner.
The people who sent the cards, I am guessing are friends from the Roann, Indiana area. Grandma and Grandpa, along with a couple of Grandma's sisters, would spend some weeks in Roann. I found their names on pictures from there." | | Archivist Note | Description prepared 1 September 2011 by Jeanine M. Wine. |
