  2. This one seems easier to find than it is turning out to be...

    Wonder if Estherville was big enough to have a "city" directory back then. Either that, or perhaps Sadie's over-written letter "c" for her brother's surname is misleading us. Tried several approaches, but nothing here, either :(

  3. I think the last letter could be 'y' for Recoy. I have found plenty of Recoy names, but not a for sure match. I haven't yet connected a Sadie from the Hutchinson/McLeod county area, though there are a few of those, as well.
