Hi Mark, I have an envelope & postcard from WW I addressed to my grandfather, John Neymeiyer, 339th Infantry M.G. (or N.G.) Co., American Expeditionary Forces from Mr. & Mrs. Edward Holksetema, (looks like it is spelled this way.) But could be Hoeksetema. Looks like capital letter E's were used in the writing. The envelope with a postcard inside has the return address of No. 1245 Courtney St., Grand Rapids, Mich. I think the postmark is Dec 4 5 PM 1918. I believe this to be a neighbor of John's family but could be a family member living near. Just not sure. Just wondered if this could be any relation to you?
