Thank you so much for taking the time to share these letter with us. I too, love finding pictures, letters, any old ephemera. I have accumulated scrapbooks and wedding photos that I need to find homes for. There is such an interesting history in them.
I loved what you just did I love that kind of stuff hearing other peoples lies and what they were about and what they did. I love it love it. Thank you.
I found this a very interesting video. Your sheer delight in discovery of people and things past is contagious. I, too, was a little sad to reach the end of this saga. I’m going to believe that some of those marigolds will grow! Thanks for sharing this with us!
I Googled William Gersweiler and read his obituary. You would delight to know he was known as "Mr. Christmas " in his town because he adorned his home with numerous trees and ornaments. It was his brother Elton who was a mayor of Beech Grove.
I loved this!❤ My aunt Jo and Uncle Doug moved to Beech Grove, Indiana in the 1960's. Their daughter was born in 1960 and son in 1970. I visited them there with my parents. It's a small world. Thank you for sharing.
I didn't think I would enjoy this, but I did. It was, to me, hearing about someone's life and being able to relate to the feelings expressed. There truly is nothing new in life that has not been felt before. Enjoyed
I really enjoyed listening to you read through the old letters and piecing together who this family was. Wouldn’t it be wild if any of your viewers were related to this family!
Misty. I really enjoyed the family care letters! Gives great memories when l lived away from my family and they would write me letters like those. It helps when you’re feeling homesick and missing your loved ones. Thanks for your patience and kindness to take the time to share them. ❤
Thanks Misty, that was a hoot! I am a junk journaller for many years and appreciate old ephemera. I had and still have that book, The Littlest Angel, from when I was a for year old ( 65 yrs ago). My mother kept it for me and when she passed, it was in her hope chest. ❤
I have a collection of post cards from and to my Great Aunt Josephine starting the in very early turn of the 20th century when people wrote postcards and letters; especially since she lived on a farm. I also have her collection of WW II cards and letters. They are so beautiful and the penmanship is just gorgeous.
That was fun, I can appreciate all of it. I was the family genealogist, took over from my grandmother. My brother is doing some deep diving now. Glad to hand it over, he is enjoying it.
My father in law is 98 and still swims, works out, walks two miles every day. He is handsome and smart and lives independently. The last time we were there to visit, he got out a big box of letters that he wrote to his mom and his fiance, my mother in law and their letters to him while he was in the Pacific Rim during WW2. So beautiful and romantic. The days of gentility and manners, that are long gone today. ✍️
Oh my, I loved the video🧡 It's so interesting to read the words of people just living their lives. I'm sure they never imagined that others would be reading them. Now, of course, I'm wondering about Mildred...😊
I love love love this kind of thing. Paper and Moose on TH-cam used to do deep deep dives on some of her finds and I loved it. Whatever you show us is interesting. Those of us who can't get to go out hunting much due to circumstances enjoy watching YOU do it!
Great video Misty. Provides some diversity in your blogs and some different interests for your viewers. Personally I enjoy all your blogs and your upbeat personality which brings joy to so many. Keep up the good work. David
I absolutely loved this. I wish we could travel through time but this is the next best thing. The Littlest Angel was one of my favorite books from childhood. I still have my copy. Sad and sweet. Thanks for sharing the little snippet of history!
I absolutely love ephemera! If all of your videos were just looking at old letters and paperwork I wouldn't mind a bit. I have the "need to know" when I run across old letters too. LOL I often end up down ancestry rabbit holes to find pictures and history of interesting people like those in your letters. It's so fun!
I thoroughly enjoyed going back in time with you. I have always loved reading old love letters and imagining what their life was like. The movie , “The Notebook” is one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time. Letters from the past is totally my jam! Thanks for sharing with us🥰❤️
To think there are so many young people today that cannot read or write cursive! It is sad that they cannot enjoy old letters or documents that may mean something to them if they could only read them, schools should bring back cursive. That was interesting to hear those letters, thank you.
I really enjoyed you reading the letters. I strangely feel connected in this little family even though I'm not in any way...my name is Mildred and I was born on June 22, 1963. It was just crazy hearing the name Mildred and the date June 22nd and the year 1963. Fascinating and scary!! ❤️
I love all things history. Letters, pictures, old abandoned houses, etc. I look at and watch videos of people who go into the houses and buildings and wonder about the family that lived inside. If walls could talk. I go through old cemeteries and read headstones. These letters are intriguing and I found myself thinking about the people and their connections, and what life was like back then. I remember my mom and grandmothers writing and receiving letters. My son wrote letters to me during basic training. I think we've lost a beautiful art. So, this was not at all boring for me.
Hello Misty hope your having a terrific weekend, we enjoy watching your videos through the week, loved your Temu unboxing video, started ordering myself on Temu , you got me addicted it’s like Christmas every week😊
Oh No I had an error! Let me try again - Hi Misty - The first letter you read said they missed Bill - Could that be William? Another you read said it included a small booklet - could it beeee "The Littlest Angel" - just a thought - Also I received my eyeglasses from Lensmart! I LOVE LOVE LOVE them so much - it was the ADAM pair - shippping (sometimes spelled with only two p's lol) was a little long but either or I LOVE THEM! I also got the PIGGY that holds the glasses SUPER ADORBS!!!! I love your vlogs - super sweet to try and plant those flowers for Sassy! Thank you Misty! Say HI MARK, Maybelle and Fluffer Nutter Pants! =)
I’m in charge of my family’s info (aka ephemera) I’m fascinated by it!! I have a scrap book my Grams put together when she was younger I still want to send to you. Maybe one day. Btw it’s not of our family, it’s funner than that haha!
It’s so important to keep these stories alive. My husbands great uncle served in WWII directly for General Eisenhower. When Charlie died at 99 those who inherited his wealth didn’t want his crate of letters and ephemera from WWII so I asked to keep it. The letters will go to the WWII museum for future reference and I will keep the remaining pieces
Misty Hello!!! My husband is from beech grove we live in trafalgar now but.... William Gershwieler was for a long time the mayor very beloved also from what i hear mayor of beech grove! LOL going to try to come to your sale in june!! Kelly🥰🥰🥰
I like how you took your time with the items. A pile of paper like that can be a bit daunting and most would simply bypass and ignore it. Cheers from a fellow ephemera nerd!
I have a box of letters that my parents wrote to each other while my dad was in Europe during WWII. My daughter suggested I give each grandchild a framed letter from Mom and Dad. This will be my summer project. I would send you some but my brother feels strongly that they shouldn't be seen by anyone outside of family. Maybe I can find one or two that aren't too personal to send to you.
@@ThrifterJunkerVintageHunterThank you!! I love them!!! We have a small town close to us and it's main drag is completely line on both sides of Antique shops etc. Now that I have seen this video of yours, can't wait to go back and look for stuff like that!!!
I love all these letters! I think I'd have to get them all in date order and re-read them. I really hope those photo's are related to the letters too. I used to collect old postcards, which were so interesting, and sometimes sad.....not sure why I stopped. Might need to resurrect that little hobby 😂
Hi Misty. I saw you missed looking at the 1st envelope of thus ephemera. It was an envelope from WWII. The return address was from either a Corporal or Captain. It might connect some of the letters.Alexa
You don't write letters today. It's so sad. I like to have a letter to save, hold it and se the persons handwriting. Nowadays we mostly write emails and textmessages and it's not so personal.
17:22 Okay Misty, you know this genealogy/research nerd couldn’t let this go without knowing more. Definitely keep these family treasures together. 🩵 “Flo” is Florence Christensen, widow of Walter R. Christensen. Here is the text from his obituary in the Indianapolis Star, Thursday, July 4, 1963: “Mr. Walter R. Christensen, formerly of Beech Grove, husband of Flo Christensen, brother of Mrs. Alice Taylor, Mrs. Mildred Butler and George Christensen, all of Beech Grove, passed away Saturday in Maywood, Calif. Services Friday, 2 p.m. LITTLE & SONS FUNERAL HOME, 1301 Main St., Beech Grove. Burial Crown Hill Cemetery. Friends may call after 7 p.m. Thursday” And the house at 5227 Cudahy Ave/St, Maywood CA looks like it was a sweet little house when they lived there. Another obituary reads: “W. R. Christensen Services Friday … Walter R. Christensen, 70, former Beech Grove resident, will be buried in Crown Hill Cemetery after services at 2 p.m. Friday in Little & Sons Funeral Home, Beech Grove. He died Saturday at Maywood, Cal. Mr. Christensen was born at Aurora. He lived at Beech Grove 30 years, going to California seven years ago. For 30 years Mr. Christensen was a carman at the Beech Grove Shops of the New York Central Railroad, retiring seven years ago. He was a veteran of World War I. Survivors are the widow, Flo Christensen; two sisters, Alice Taylor and Mildred Butler, and a brother, George Christensen, all of Beech Grove.” 🩵 Flo Burgess Christensen’s obituary (Indianapolis Star, Sunday, Feb 4, 1973)… “Flora B. Christensen, Maywood, Calif., formerly of Beech Grove, Ind. Beloved aunt of June Dronberger, sister of William C. and Frederick Burgess, passed away Tuesday, January 30th. Private in torment Crown Hill Cemetery. G. H. HERRMANN SERVICE.”
William Alan Geshwiler (1924-2011) was Alice Christensen Taylor’s son. Alice lived 1890-1982. I found her death certificate on Ancestry. Elton, Mildred, William Jr, and stepchildren Helen, Ruth, Margaret are Alice’s kids. Why do I get the feeling that all of these letters fell to one of the step kids and they got rid of them. 🤔🧐
Mildred info… Hulda Mildred Geshwiler Gaspard (1914-1963) She was married to E L Gaspard. Mildred passed from a pulmonary embolism at the young age of 49.
Alice Christensen was married to William Henry Geshwiler until his death in 1934. In 1936 she married Edward A Taylor (that’s the E.A. Taylor in the letters.) They were married until his death in 1960.
BREAKING NEWS FROM THE RABBIT HOLE😂 William (Bill) passed in 2011. I found his obit online. His father was William H, Mother was Alice, Brother was Elton, and Sister was Mildred. He also had a stepfather, Edward Taylor, so Alice remarried. Apparently, Bill was not married at time of passing. No mention of a wife or children preceding his passing and only survived by 3 nephews. My name is also Alice so I felt a burning need to look it up. 👀
William and Mildred were siblings their parents were Alice Christensen and wm Gertsweiler. I can send you death certificates etc I love reading about these lives
I had a bunch of letters my mom and dad exchanged when he was stationed in the Army, 1945(?). All I remember is my mom talking about sex in one of them, lol.
I love reading and looking through old letters, journals and pictures
Thank you so much for taking the time to share these letter with us. I too, love finding pictures, letters, any old ephemera. I have accumulated scrapbooks and wedding photos that I need to find homes for. There is such an interesting history in them.
I love history and genealogy and all of that was fascinating
I dont mind seeing you Misty.
Your my ray of sunshine every day
Thank you for vlogging XXX

Thank you for letting me join you as you went threw all the letters. I enjoyed it very much. Have a wonderful day. See you in the next one.
I found this a very interesting video. Your sheer delight in discovery of people and things past is contagious. I, too, was a little sad to reach the end of this saga. I’m going to believe that some of those marigolds will grow! Thanks for sharing this with us!

I loved this, such a peak into other lives and times ❤
I Googled William Gersweiler and read his obituary. You would delight to know he was known as "Mr. Christmas " in his town because he adorned his home with numerous trees and ornaments. It was his brother Elton who was a mayor of Beech Grove.
I love that!!!
I absolutely loved this ephemera video. It was like we were in a detective story. Please continue to do them. I thoroughly enjoyed it!!
❤
“Yes! More ephemera!”-I said that out loud before watching today👏Thanks again Misty for sharing, and hope you’re having a wonderful trip with Mark 🚙 😊
I loved this!❤ My aunt Jo and Uncle Doug moved to Beech Grove, Indiana in the 1960's. Their daughter was born in 1960 and son in 1970. I visited them there with my parents. It's a small world. Thank you for sharing.

Absolutely loved it. I adore ephemera and genealogy!! Hearing of others helps to understand our own lives ❤️. Thank you girl!

Really enjoyed this blog. So sad for Flo.❤
I love your intros. They are the Misty we all know and love.
Those letters prove everyone has a story to tell. This is an interesting episode - loved it.

Back in the day the people sure had a beautiful, elegant handwriting. I think it's nice to see! 🥰 💗 📜 🖋

Awesome! Thank you!
I have fifty years worth of diaries my grandmother kept starting in the 1930’s. A lot of family history. Also letters, postcards and V mail.
I thoroughly enjoyed going back in time with you. I have always loved reading old love letters and imagining what their life was like. The movie , “The Notebook” is one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time. Letters from the past is totally my jam!

Love these videos. It gives us a small glimpse into the life and times of others. 💗
So true!
That was interesting. Yes, you should keep all of them together. Let us know how it goes with the seeds.❣️
Keep us posted if the marigolds come up for Sassy! Loved the vlog!
Will do!!
It would be really amazing if you found this family.
Hello Misty hope your having a terrific weekend, we enjoy watching your videos through the week, loved your Temu unboxing video, started ordering myself on Temu , you got me addicted it’s like Christmas every week😊
Love that old ephemera ❤
The one memorial card that had the palm trees and a tower was Bok tower in Lake Wales Florida. I've been there several times.
I'm still here. I find these so interesting.
That was a great peek into history, I love that kind of stuff too! I have done my family's genealogy search, very interesting!
This was fun. i loved it. This kind of stuff fascinates me as well. I dont like personal drama, but i do like to observe others😂😂😂.
Oh No I had an error! Let me try again - Hi Misty - The first letter you read said they missed Bill - Could that be William?

Oh I need the rest of the story. Keep them coming Misty.
Working on it!

Oh wow! I'd love to return these to Beech Grove!
I laughed with Mildred!
I like how you took your time with the items. A pile of paper like that can be a bit daunting and most would simply bypass and ignore it. Cheers from a fellow ephemera nerd!
Just think about the future, without written letters, because of computers 😢😢
I know. 🤔
Couldn't believe a hotel in Elgin, IL was mentioned. That's where I live. How interesting.
I found my grandparents love letters while they were courting circa 1919.
So cool. Wanting more. ❤
I have a box of letters that my parents wrote to each other while my dad was in Europe during WWII. My daughter suggested I give each grandchild a framed letter from Mom and Dad. This will be my summer project. I would send you some but my brother feels strongly that they shouldn't be seen by anyone outside of family. Maybe I can find one or two that aren't too personal to send to you.
I love that you're framing the letters for generations to cherish their ancestors.
Misty, I enjoy these videos, I do wonder what life was like back then.
Me too!
Very interesting content!!
Glad you enjoyed it! I love this stuff!
I loved loved this!!! Where do you buy those????
An antique mall
@@ThrifterJunkerVintageHunterThank you!! I love them!!! We have a small town close to us and it's main drag is completely line on both sides of Antique shops etc. Now that I have seen this video of yours, can't wait to go back and look for stuff like that!!!
So much fun and like you, I want to know the rest of the story.....
❤
I love all these letters! I think I'd have to get them all in date order and re-read them. I really hope those photo's are related to the letters too.
I used to collect old postcards, which were so interesting, and sometimes sad.....not sure why I stopped. Might need to resurrect that little hobby 😂
Oh not bored…love it. Interesting but sad. As family historian I think oh how did all this valuable info get away from the family! More anytime.
Loved this...soo much ❤ plse share the flowers if they bloom 🏵
It would be neat if the family of these people saw this video!
Hi Misty. I saw you missed looking at the 1st envelope of thus ephemera. It was an envelope from WWII. The return address was from either a Corporal or Captain. It might connect some of the letters.Alexa
Looks like the Memorium card was for Mildred, the lady who wrote the "bull @#it" letter.
very interesting but so sad,
You should keep the littlest Angle book.❤
You don't write letters today. It's so sad. I like to have a letter to save, hold it and se the persons handwriting. Nowadays we mostly write emails and textmessages and it's not so personal.

I felt compelled to research this one because I know exactly how Flo felt about losing Walter. :(
William Alan Geshwiler (1924-2011) was Alice Christensen Taylor’s son. Alice lived 1890-1982. I found her death certificate on Ancestry. Elton, Mildred, William Jr, and stepchildren Helen, Ruth, Margaret are Alice’s kids. Why do I get the feeling that all of these letters fell to one of the step kids and they got rid of them. 🤔🧐
Mildred info… Hulda Mildred Geshwiler Gaspard (1914-1963) She was married to E L Gaspard. Mildred passed from a pulmonary embolism at the young age of 49.
Elton Geshwiler was the mayor of Beech Grove. Per Alice’s obituary.
Alice Christensen was married to William Henry Geshwiler until his death in 1934. In 1936 she married Edward A Taylor (that’s the E.A. Taylor in the letters.) They were married until his death in 1960.

Thank you!!!! ❤️
Hi Misty 😊
Happy Mother's Day ( well, it is here in the UK 🇬🇧)
Same to you!
What ephemera will this now generation leave for future generation to read.🤔
William and Mildred were siblings their parents were Alice Christensen and wm Gertsweiler. I can send you death certificates etc I love reading about these lives
Love learning!! Yes!!
I had a bunch of letters my mom and dad exchanged when he was stationed in the Army, 1945(?). All I remember is my mom talking about sex in one of them, lol.
🤗🇨🇦👍
