This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DGC.2ACI/1577 Message Board Post: I have a few "Reward of Merritt" cards given to a Lewis Christensen, dated from various months in 1897, signed by teacher Rose Brooks. These were small cards handed to grade school children as a reward for doing well in school. I would like to return them to a descendant of Lewis Christensen for postage reimbursement. I believe Lewis may have been attending school in Wood County, Wisconsin. The cards are about the size of a postcard. I am not related to this family nor have any information on Christensen genealogy.
