The following post cards are courtesy of Terri Rick who is a "descendant of Reynolds, Bliss, Deucher, Hendricks, Cunningham and many many more."

"The following are of New Matamoras - The horse belonged to my family - my Great, Great Grandfather John Henry Felter."--Terri Rick

The Bellevue Hotel in Marietta:





"My Great-Great Grandmother, Mary Grace
Hendricks, was born and raised in New Matamoras - married John Henry
Felter and moved to what was commonly referred to as 'Deucher Hill.'  Then  she moved to Marietta.  Most of the postcards are between her and the
Deucher's.  I've included a picture of Main Street, New
Matamoras, during the flood of 1913 - I know this because the postmark is dated
1913."



 



"I've included the back for this postcard as it is
fairly legible and was sent to other than a Deucher.   Post Card says, "Dear Cousin, I will drop you a
line this morning as I haven't heard from you for some time.  I heard the flood
reached you people pretty bad.  Are you straightened up yet? It just missed up 4
inches. I want to go down home before long and see. John is so busy now papering
every day has two weeks or more ahead yet. Ans Grace"


 

 

 The Wharf at New Matamoras:







"This is the photo of the back of the Bell Methodist
Church, which I believe is the Bell Church that burned down.  On the back is written, "Bell Methodist Church -
Sunday School.

 

"The first two boys in the picture, left to right, are my uncle, Bernard George Reynolds, and my Dad, Robert John Reynolds; of the
three gentlemen standing in the doorway, the middle one is my Grandfather,
Bernard Otho Reynolds."
