               brother P.T. Poulsen (my grandfather). This postcard is a good example for how
               you can get useful information for your genealogy from almost anywhere. I

               was able to add and verify several important “facts” based on information
               found on this postcard – note the mentioned birthday and age as well as a very
               easy to read postmark. My mother wrote in pencil on the card “Paul Poulsen’s
               home in R. Hill - Virginia …”. He lived there as a boy but when this card was
               sent, he lived in Port Angeles, WA. Niels still lived in this house though (and

               others). It only cost a penny to mail it back then!  Stephen
