Message Board Post:
I recently found a photograph of an old postcard that was sent to Hilding NORLIN (or
Norlin HILDING) of Valparaiso from Norrkoping, Sweden in 1906. You can see the postcard on
http://philgen.org (search on NORLIN, click on View, and scroll to the bottom of the
page), or click on the link below. I am unable to find a Hilding NORLIN (or Norlin
HILDING) and wondered if someone more familiar with Valparaiso can find him. I believe
that Norrkoping may be his or his parents' birthplace and this postcard will be
helpful to someone in their genealogical research. The reason I have a photo of the
postcard is because of my interest in using old envelopes and postcards in genealogical
research. I have an article in the spring 2009 issue of New England Ancestors entitled
Philatelic Genealogy (viewable at the philgen website) and have started the philgen
website.
Here is a direct link to the photo of the postcard:
