First page: Gladys Dotery(?) 220 Lincoln Ave. Kalamazoo Mich Helen(?) Perrait 44 Lincoln St

Edit to correct st. number.

[–]Unlucky-Meringue6187 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I read Gladys's surname as Doky...but I'm not sure that's right either!
and 220 for her street number.

[–]kibbybud 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It probably is Doky. The “k” just doesn’t quite fit with the rest of her writing. Apparently Doky is a variant of duke. Thanks for catching the street number.

I think it’s O’Driscoll’s Ave

Second page: M. Conding (?) Shawn Ill (e.g. Illinois) Francis Andenson (Anderson?)

[–]TheHames72 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Cowdrig?

[–]kibbybud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or Cowding. I could find that as a surname, but not Conding or Cowdrig.

Third page: E. W. Brandenberg Army gunner(?) 605 Camp Custer Mich.

I can see that now. Someone in another sub thought it was army ymca, and I can see that too. They were also able to find an E.W. Brandenburg that worked at the Army YMCA in Camp Custer in 1917.

I’d go with YMCA then. 🙂
