About yesterday's post card. It is sent from San Diego, CA. It is rather hard to read and is from
someone that only put their initials on it and I thought they are C.B. Later I found another
post card from San Diego from an Archie Beekley. The name was rather hard to read as the
post office stamp is over that spot. At first I thought it was Archie Beekly. I did some investigation on Ancestry.com. Now I would guess that it
is a G.B. and that it is from an Archibald Gordon Beekley born in 1894 in Waterloo,
Iowa. He must have been a friend of grandma’s. He died after a flight training accident at the age of 26. Archie is listed as born in Waterloo, Iowa so my guess I have located a friend who had moved away.

Another Postcard from the Past
This one was post marked Jan 24, 1911. It is from Ruth B. Ruth most likely lived in Waterloo from where this card was sent. Lucy lived in Waterloo on 1129 Randolph Street. Lucy had sent Ruth a little guest book. Ruth was thanking her very, very much for the cute little guest book.
