« on: Monday 26 August 13 04:44 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I have attached 2 x postcards on I of them the  last name is Atkinson. what are the first 2 initials?
the second I think is J but cannot decide on the first one. The second postcard just has initials, they look like they are from the same person.

Perhaps WT ... It does look a bit like a J, but the J's in June and July look different.

On the first postcard I can't make out the first initial but the second one looks like an F.

On the second postcard the initials look like W F.

 I think I see W.T. A in the second postcard. I guess the A is for Atkinson.
