Top:  Adelaide McGonigle card to Eliza Hill Ryan in 1930.  It shows that one of their destinations was to visit Batt's cousin Margaret Ryan Hess in Wayside, Nebraska.  Wayside is south of Custer, SD.  (Click on postcard to enlarge)

James and Jo Ryan owned a restaurant in Illinois (click to enlarge)

Front of card Adelaide Ryan sent to Eliza Hill Ryan.

We believe that this is Bill Ryan with Mavis?.  Bill was the second eldest son of Frank and Adelaide Ryan.

Not certain if Rev. Brady was a priest in Kimball at one time, but after reviewing the post cards, it appears that the Bradys were family friends.
