This postcard, postmarked Midland, Michigan, December 22, 1922, was part of the collection of cards of my paternal great-uncle and aunt, Clarence and Vera (Haley) Stuber.
I have not yet identified "Beck" yet, but Vera's aunt and uncle, Arthur and Carrie Mae (Haley) Graves, did live in Midland during this time.

This postcard, postmarked December 24, 1918 in Portland, Indiana, was sent to my paternal great-aunt, Vera (Haley) Stuber, by her sister, Clara Elnora Haley.
The Ruth mentioned is my grandmother, Ruth Haley. The George Metzner mentioned is an unidentified Metzner relative. Gay Bergman was a distant relative of the family through the Metzner side, and was a contemporary of Vera.

This postcard, postmarked Belmore, Ohio, December 22, 1929, was part of the collection of my paternal great-uncle and aunt, Clarence and Vera (Haley) Stuber.
Which George Metzner family is this from? Vera's great-uncle and aunt, George W. and Elizabeth Metzner, lived in the Belmore area, but he died in 1875. Belmore is in Putnam County, Ohio. Another mystery to sort out.
