• Notes

  The following is a transcription of a letter from Mabel Link to her niece, Doris Dudick sometime in the 1980s. "June 3, Dear Doris, I was glad to receive your letter, which told me more about your family. I just can't believe your family is so grown. I remember the time you came home and told your mother you were going to have a baby. It was your first. We always enjoyed our yearly visit to your home. Things have really changed since then. I even remember coming up to Glenside to see you when you were born. I am enclosing a couple pictures for you. The one of your grandmother alone must have been taken before she was married. That was taken from a large one in a frame. Aunt Regina gave it to Walter. He had no place for it and gave it to your Mother. Before doing that he had three copies made, one he kept, one he gave to Aurelia and one to Jule. The picture of your grandmother and grandfather must have been their wedding picture, as I remember Walter telling me, his father was only 31 when he died. The snapshot isn't very plain. Your grandmother is in the center, on the top is Walter and Aurelia. Next row, stepbrother, grandmother and Jule. That must have been taken after Walter came from Girard College and not too long before she died. As I wrote before Jule wasn't born when his father died. From the picture their doesn't seem to be too much difference in age between Jule and his step brother. Walter was sixteen when he came from Girard College and he was 18 or a little older when (she) Mother died. These are only ages etc that Walter had told me. Mother died and didn't know him very well or any of the family. He went to the same church I did and was confirmed when I was. I hope you enjoy the pictures. Please let me know when you receive them. I hope they get there safe. If I find any more I will send them to you. I think I sent Linda one of Aunt Rosa. I hope everything goes well with your daughter and her baby. I know you will enjoy having them their. Write again. Love, Aunt Mabel"
