postcard from CBW to Stuart Thomas.1

Narrative

From Margaret Wells 31 Oct 2010:
Dear Emrys,

I have received from my brother David 90 postcards plus a book of 12 of Brousse, collected and/or sent by CBW whilst travelling with army.
They are very interesting. Some are black and white and others coloured and beautiful.

72 unwritten ones presumably collected by Charlie are of Tiflis, Kiev, Dagestan, Yalta, various Caucasus and pictures of people of the region, Moscow, Konia, Elisabethpol, Constantinople, Manglis, Salonika, Stamboul, Larissa, Athens, Eubee (Greece), Corfu, Oktonia, Eghion, Tatouan, Saint Brieuc (France), Paris, Aix les Bains, Avranches, Feugerolles St Andre.

6 addressed to others (second hand) of Rotterdam, Saratow, Ekaterinsburg, Batum. Datestamped 1910 & 1911.

1 addressed to himself at 17 Field St., of Athens.
1 addressed to Miss Gloria Williams 1 Mayola Road, Clapton, E5, of Boulogne sur Mer. Attached below.
8 addressed to Master Stuart Thomas at 17 Field St., 7 of Marseille, 1 of Valletta (Malta). These were all written to his nephew Stuart and according to what he writes on the back were enclosed in letters, so not stamped or posted separately. They are lovely! One attached below.

1 with notes on back Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, of Constantinople.
1 with notes on back incl date 1/5/1919, of Constantinople.

Hope you like them!
Margaret

 

Stuart Thomas must be the child of Charlie's sister Mary, born 1871ish, and Will Thomas. in which case the order of briths or the dates I have in the tree must be awry.
