I am told this is one of my grandmother’s sisters who stayed in Lithuania when my grandmother left for the USA. She sent this picture postcard of herself and her two children to my grandmother. It seems to have messages from two different people written on its back side. The only thing I can understand of the message is the year 1916. View full size.
