As of October 2019 not all locations are represented, I’m still collecting postcards to fill the gaps and the data entry process is very much ongoing.

Please note, names and addresses are only given for postcards over 100 years old. This information is given for the purpose of genealogical research. Any quoted text from a postcard may well just be a snippet and not the full text.
