Dear Listers, I am lister off the Shropshire list, but wondered if someone could possibly help me with this ? I recently purchased an old sepia postcard ( picture on front is a scene of Alveley in Shropshire) The card is addressed to - Mrs Morris Vauze House Blackwood Chorley The message reads - Dear Auntie, I managed to get home alright Mr & Mrs Massey are staying a few days Best Love Dorothy Mr & Mrs Massey were Alveley folk.........but what I really want to know is who is Dorthoy or Mrs Morris are ?? Does the address ring any bells with anyone ? Postmarked Manchester The date is smudged unfortunatley. Brown three half pence stamp Any help much appreciated Best Wishes, Margaret _________________________________________________________________ Free games, great prizes - get gaming at Gamesbox. http://www.searchgamesbox.com

Presumably the stamp is King George V? 1.5 pence for a postcard would be 1921/1922 (I think) Martin Briscoe Fort William M&LFHS | Gwynedd FHS > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of > Margaret Sheridan > Sent: 03 February 2008 20:08 > To: [email protected] > Subject: [ENG-LAN-BOLTON] Vauze House, Blackrod - help please ! > > > > > > > Dear Listers, > I am lister off the Shropshire list, but wondered if someone > could possibly help me with this ? > > I recently purchased an old sepia postcard ( picture on > front is a scene of Alveley in Shropshire)
