Smile for the Camera Valentines



This is a postcard to my dad Claude Hansen when he was 9 years old from his cousin Walter Hansen. My dad was born in Sebeka, Minnesota to Anton and Anna Hansen on a farm right next door to Anton's brothers Lawrence Hansen and John Hansen. Walter Hansen was a son of Lawrence Hansen and was only 5 years old when this card was sent.

Anton and Anna Hansen and family moved to Columbus Montana in 1910, where Anton ran the creamery.

  3. Thanks Nancy, My dad had a book made to keep post cards in, and I have about 40 or 50 old postcards he saved.
