A Southern Sleuth -
Today I’m sharing a letter written to Cora E. Brown from her soon to be husband, Thomas C. Hall. The letter is dated 30 Jan 1877 and we know they were married just 6 days later, on 5 Feb 1877.
I have transcribed the letter and share that here with you. I don’t absolutely know what the word “Poksie” at the top of the first page means. Since the couple were in New York, could it have meant Poughkeepsie?
A search on Google maps reveals Poughkeepsie to be 116 miles south of Saratoga Springs, New York, where the couple were married.
