This page, and others to come, pose a different question. We have a clue to the person but don't know their Whitstable family connection. Maybe you can help provide the link.
 | Clues A photographic postcard found in Whitstable. It has not been used postally. On the back of the card is written, in pencil, So, if there are any RUSSELL's out there, do you recognise him? |
This one is a little more obtuse. This time a proper postcard, again found in Whitstable, showing the S.S. Minnehaha. This was a liner that took many emigrants away from these shores to America from 1903.
Again postally unused, perhaps just kept as a memento, the few words in the image below, "Torpedoed 7th September 1917. The ship Charlie was on".
 |  |
We're assuming that Charlie either crewed on this ship or sailed of to a new world on her and wasn't one of the 43 people who perished with her on that date. Was Charlie the ancestor that brought your family to America?
If you have any Whitstable related pictures of this type that you would like answers to then we will happily publish them here.
