These are old Real Photo postcards. After some research and identification, they appear to be from the Hotel Delaware in East Branch, the Hotel's dining room, the Hotel's owners and their young daughter from circa 1910's. The picture of the mother and daughter are particularly lovely. --Laszlo F. Nagy - posted here December 1, 2009

HOTEL DELAWARE Note received December 8, 2009 I would like to add some additional information. My Great-Uncle Clement J Meyer rented the hotel from March 1, 1912 to March 31, 1919, when he left the hotel it was owned by the estate of Polly L Martin the Orange Co. Trust Co. of Middletown were the executors, (per the Hancock Herald). The photo with the female and male, the male is Marvin Wynkoop, who later moved to Downsville, the lady, I do not know. The lady and child are not the daughter or granddaughter of Uncle Clem. The last two postcards are from the interior of the hotel, and I have a date of November 1913, Uncle Clem sister-in-law is the lady serving. --John
