Looking at the people in my grandfather's life in the early 1900's through his Edwardian post card collection.

Buckland Village
An intriguing message, "2nd signal, alls well" to Alice Langford. Another card sent to Marchant & Co in Fleet Street, Torquay. Alice's mother was a Marchant before she married Emanuel Langford. Alice married Archibald Williams soon after this card was sent, was the message to do with the preparations?
Where the picture on this card is of can only be guessed at as there are several Bucklands in Devon and many more across the country.
July 12th 1905 was a Wednesday.
