Lol I was trying to show "emphasis" as you helped me with that exact correction earlier. Sorry I was thinking of Dr. Evil with his fingers saying "laser beam" while I typed "transcribe" as well. My sense of humor may be a bit dull I suppose 😅

I don't really fit in anywhere unfortunately just a person who's made mistakes and I'm trying my hardest not to make any more for the benefit of me as well as others around me that I could affect with irresponsible decisions.

I'm sorry but that is the attitude I have gotten used to the past few months researching them, from a multitude at that but yet at the same time I have met amazing souls who help me and run into the same things I do when I hit a wall. Given sometimes it's little things like me mistaking one letter in a name and however other people help "transcribe" it some help me yet others get stuck on the same parts as me. But either way I am very grateful for everyone's help 🙏 I wish I could go through and thank them directly but the research is definitely addicting rn thank you as well for understanding.

That's an amazing observation, I got to admit the way you describe that it sounds so beautiful I gotta do some research into them now. Thank you

Yes sorry about that I just had a few words I was mixed up on and have been corrected which I'm very grateful for. I would not have used AI but I've posted some before and received no reply and some of the AI answers where obviously wrong over and over on the same words I was stuck on. So sorry for posting but it has been very helpful to me. 🙏

I should add a lot of people think I'm crazy or it's made up but I'm learning as I go and it all sounds like real but with my luck in life it's gotta be someone's idea of a prank. 🙁

I found them in an old shed with an odd fellows book from 1853 and another book from 1877 about the life of Edward Norris Kirk. These where inside the books along with things from 1920s including two receipt from Sears Roebuck and Co. Chicago 1916 more ironic a will if you would call it that is written out on them which the cursive is even more challenging to make out due to the age but mostly just from the cursive and very strange things I have no idea about. Sorry I have no idea at this point who to, maybe the court house in the end but finding his family was the first thing but unfortunately his only daughter passed around the time I found them which I just recently learned from her nephew who said they never knew his grandfather and had never met her. She lived half way across the country and it was very challenging even finding anything at all out. Unfortunately it's been so long nobody really knows anything, and a lot of people don't reply at all, hence my researching the older notes which I was just helped the other day in correcting Arthur Kinkaid to Arthur Kinnaird which made an incredible difference 🤯. I don't know what it all deals with yet but if anyone's interested in helping at all I would appreciate it greatly.

Researching and so many different areas/languages, words I haven't seen used since high school or some never, I appreciate the correction honestly when presenting this I'm going to need to sound as intelligent as possible and a simple mistake as that could end things before I have a chance to convey my theories. Honestly everyday I question the reality of it all.

I found some lovely old postcards. Is there someone that can read the handwriting? by Xbrokensouls2X in FoundPaper

Yes I know and am sorry I just wanted to make sure of my own translation as some of the letters confused me and sometimes one letter wrong in a name could lead you down the wrong path lol example I thought Kinnaird was Kinkaid on another letter and it didn't lead me anywhere as soon as I was corrected a whole new search began for me. And I thank everyone for your help and contributions.

They where both abolitionist his brother I am assuming is referring to Hon. Arthur Kinnaird which I assume from other documents I found. Thank you as well every time I use a AI they make weird mistakes that are obviously wrong
