Aug. 21, 1945
Dr. Yegerlehner,
Would you be kind enough to write a note or a vaccination certificate for Madelyne and Francis Jr. as Madelyne is entering school Sept. 6th and it is imperative I have some notification that she has been vaccinated. If possible would you make out separate notes. I hate to bother you for this. The date was sometime last Aug.
How is Gladys and all the children?
I sure miss Missouri and would love to be back there. Mont is stationed on Guam and is anxious to get home and see his new little daughter. She’ll be 3 months old tomorrow and just as sweet as can be.
Would love to hear from you
[page 2] people, we did have some very nice times together.
Hope to hear from you soon
Thanking you Sincerely
Madelyne Moynihan
19 Mr. Vernon St.
Somerville Mass.
P.S. If you do get a chance drop a note to Mont he would love to hear from you. His address is:
Lt. Francis C. Moynihan U.S.N.R.
Staff Air Pac – Sub Com Fwd
℅ F.P.O.
San Francisco,
California Box 24

Huh? Am I missing something? Madelyn is about to enter school. The newborn must be a third child.
Madelyne, who is about to enter school, is the one who required the vaccination certificate. You were not clear about which daughter you were referring to in your original note so I assumed you were talking about Madelyne, not the newborn.
How funny….the envelope is addressed to Oscar Yegerlehner!
Hmmmm…..she wants to be in Missouri instead of Massachusetts. 😦
Too bad she doesn’t give the daughter’s name. It would be cool to track her down to show her this letter. SO much to do, so little time. 😦
Sigh: before the time when people were suspicious about vaccines.
The daughter’s name was Madelyne (from the first paragraph). 🙂
