Another Aldergrove history nugget - this postcard was sent from Aunt Carrie (Anna Caroline Jackman nee Wadel), who was the wife of Philip Jackman Jr, to one of her nieces, Emilia Lehmann. While we haven't yet placed Emilia in the Settler Family Tree yet, we have some great clues as to which branch she belongs.
The note in blue ink was added at some later date, we don't know when or by whom. We also now know who took the photo of Philip Jackman Sr's first house in Aldergrove. For years we thought it was FJ Hart when in fact it was well-known photographer W T Cooksley.
