<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 84322, member: 59&quot;]Well, I don&#039;t know where the &quot;came from a wealthy family in upstate NY&quot; came from, but it is quite unlikely. I tried every conceivable interpretation of the embroidered signature and there was no one, named Alma or otherwise, with that name in upstate NY in the time period in question - Quebec, Ontario, Massachusetts, the UP of Michigan and the deep south, yes, but not NY. Closest I got was a woman whose maiden name was Alma Trappier who gave birth to 2 children between 1907 and 1910 in the Renfrew area of Ontario.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
