The Family of the War Postcard Album

The owner of the Postcard Album was Daisy May Neale of Brunswick Street, Leicester who was born on the 21st July 1894. Daisy's Brothers, Arch and George, sent many of the postcards to the family and they feature more than Jim (James) Goodrich who later married Daisy. Jim was born on the 12th May 1892 and died on the 22nd July 1958.

Sadly, like many albums, no names on the photographs for future generations to learn about their family.
