(dated July 5 1972)Dear Mrs. Stiles:
Dear Mrs. Stiles:Please pardon my long delay in answering your kind letter of April 11th. I have gone through our records here and found that my husband, Walter, who passed away on March 27th, 1969, had started writing to your father, after he found his name listed in a World War Two magazine, published down south.I think he wrote to Blanche and Ferdinand Fromholtz [sic], Section 8, Wood, Wisc 53193.

(back)After quite a while, our correspondence was returned to us, with no forwarding address and so we lost track of each other. I don't think there is any relationship involved, as Walter's one uncle went to Russia and Walter's father came to the United States to
Hoboken NJ and another uncle settled in Wisconsin. I was hoping we might be able to establish some relationship.
