I wonder if anyone can tell me about George Forbes. This is a loooong shot, but I have been stuck forever trying to find Rosa Clerc, born 1896, Hillsboro (still listed with her maiden name in the 1920 census). I have a postcard marked Hillsboro, dated Dec 2, 1916, addressed to Rosa Clerc: Dear Rosa, Better have George bring you out Sat. night or meet me at Goldwau (?) at 9:30 Sun. a.m. Hope you have had a nice time and that this finds you and yours all well. Love, Kathleen I have no idea who George or Kathleen are. I have been going back thru things and have noticed George Forbes name (the long shot is that it is 14-15 years earlier) in a class photo. Many of the children's last names are the same as those families I am still trying to find that lived in the surrounding area of the Clerc's Poultry Farm (it makes sense that they would all go to school together, so I thought maybe it would make sense that she married one of them...) Thanks for any leads! Kay-Florida
