“A little package containing a Baby Girl was born to Mr. & Mrs. J. Pomp of Overisel, Mich. at 2 a.m. Name: June Pomp. Weight: 8 1/2 lbs. Date: Dec. 6, 1915.”
Well, the fact that Michigan is the birth state for June worked out perfectly for this card, since the M there was set up for a.m or p.m. Perfect, though. And a cute announcement for sure, showing stork and package in pink with baby, and charming village in the distance. The postcard was sent to:
“Mrs. Chaffee, Sr., Herreid, S. Dakota.”
Michigan marriage records show that June’s parents were Julius Pomp and Gertrude Shoop (but possibly Schaap per Ancestry family trees.) June married Walter Mack on August 31, 1940.
