Here are two letters from Adelaide Helena Wallace (aka Addie) from 1981 and that project I did for a history class my first semester at Central Michigan University.
Letter #1 October 1981
Transcription
Dear Julie – Thanks for the photo. It has been a few years so I am indeed glad to know what you look like. I don’t know that I have helped much and hope you have better luck with some of the others. Marian, Kate, and Jim were here a few days last week. It is just us three sisters left now. My best to your folks and stop in if yo come this way. Love Addie.

Letter #2, November 1981
Dear Julie – I don’t think I have helped much, but it’s good to hear from you. I think the last time I saw you folks was a family reunion at Gross’s some years ago. I came home last Sunday after a few days at our camp in the U.P. I always enjoy being with the boys. Jim has been coming every year for 28 years. I haven’t missed since 1946. I don’t hunt – just feed them. I ate Thanksgiving dinner with friends here yesterday. I hope you could be home. Lois and Chuck will be up next week. They come every two weeks. Hi to your folks – take care – Love, Addie
