Re: Query on Lockets Date Letter

Thanks again.

Whether they will reply is another matter...!

Query on Lockets Date Letter

Hi There, I am new to the forum, and wonder if anyone can help identify the year associated with the date letter on my locket. It seems to be a distinctive i - but I cannot locate precisely which year it applies to. I would appreciate any ideas. Thanks http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t670/Adnyl4...
