The following postcards were sent by family and friends
- travelling abroad and
in Australia
- as Christmas, New Year and birthday cards
to members of the
-
Foxton family living at The Priory, Indooroopilly, Brisbane
-
Hooper family, either at a Creek Street Brisbane
business address, or to a home address at Fernberg Road, Milton, Brisbane,
or to a Cornhill, London address.
Interestingly, many postcards sent from within Australia do not depict their
address of posting. Apparently, postcards were collected or purchased for future
correspondence use.
The main recipients were
- Colonel Justin Fox Greenlaw Foxton
- Mrs. Emily Foxton (née Panton)
- Miss Mildred Foxton
- Mr. Claude Gilson Foxton
- Mr. TB Hooper and Misses Kathleen and Jean Hooper (family friends)
