I'm posting some old postcards from Charles Brothers to his mother, Hannah. This first one is dated just 11 days after Montezuma's death!
It looks like Charles was on a trip to the West Coast. Perhaps with an errand related to his father's death?
This first card is dated the 28th of June 1907,

Be sure to scroll down these Acrobat images to see both the back as well as the front of the cards.

This third card is dated the 26th of August 1907 and is from Trout Lake Michigan. This would appear that Charles was now on his way back "from the Coast" .

Note it also appears that  he was travelling by train and that part of the trip was through the USA.

Apparently Charles didn't think much of Trout Lake Michigan, although the picture of the Iriquois Hotel looks pretty good.

This card is addressed to the "Newbridge Post Office." I remember hearing the old folks talking about Newbridge as if it were a tiny village nearby.

This is the last of these 1907 post cards that I have, but I do have more cards and letters of later dates. I'll post them later.

I'm Posting another post card from Charles Brothers to his Mother dated Sept 3, 1909. (postmarked the 4th)

In it he says he's still in Toronto, working away at the horses.

Since the card is from the Toronto Exhibition and the date is about right, perhaps Charles had some of his horses at the exhibition? The horse and other farm animals have always been a big part of that exhibition

Here is a second card from Roy & Sade, postmarked January 29, 1908 from Winnipeg.

Again this one is to "Grandma", addressed to Mrs. M. Brothers at Brotherston, Ontario.

I'm still trying to figure out who are "Roy & Sade".

Let me know if you figure it out.

Also notice that the Dec 19th card says "on our way back to Winnipeg" so if that was their wedding date or close to it, was one or both of them living in Winnipeg before their wedding? And not only that, did they live in Winnipeg after their wedding for a little while??

Notice that there is a 2nd post card from Roy & Sade to "Grandma" postmarked in Winnipeg Manitoba on Jan 29, 1908, exactly one month after the mystery card from Chicago.

Since their wedding date is Dec 19, 1907, in Ontario,  did they live in Winnipeg before and after their marriage? Or did they go on an extended honeymoon to Winnipeg via Chicago?

I've checked my records and have very little information about Roy & Sade, but there is no mention of them ever living outside of Ontario?

Their first child, Charles Hayter Brothers, was born at Baseline, Bayfield, Ontario, on October 3, 1908, so they were apparently back to Ontario by then. The rest of their children were all born in Stratford, Ontario, except Constance, who was born in Fort William Ontario. (That is closer to Winnipeg all right)

Mystery still unsolved.
