The back of the postcard reads: “Mrs. J.P. McAuley, Apohaqui, K. Co. N.B. (Kings county, New Brunswick) ”

Renae, “Mrs. J.P. McAuley is Adelia McLeod who married John P. McAuley. Adelia is Agnes’ youngest sister. Oh, the messy handwriting listing the names belongs to my Dad, Harry-Jae Elder. He wanted to make sure names were listed on the backs of the photos.”
