No date, from nobody to noone


I have a book of postcards that was handed down to me from my Great Aunt. These postcards belonged to her aunt, Kathryn Junk. The postcards are gorgeous, but more than than that, I wanted to discover the story they tell. I do not know much about this relative except that she lived about a hundred years ago. She never married or had children and I seem to remember hearing that she died at a fairly young age. I have a photo and what I believe to be the necklace that she is wearing in the photo.
