Searching the Belle W. Baruch Collection Online

christmas postcard from 1907

Did you know you can access digitized images of the Belle W. Baruch Collection from the Hobcaw Barony online?  In a December 20, 1907 penny postcard with divided back, Belle Baruch writes from New York City to her sister at Hobcaw, “Dear sister, lots of kisses from sister Belle.” It would have been a rare exception for the Bernard Baruch family not to be together at Hobcaw Barony for the Christmas season; however, the entire family may have been at Hobcaw by Christmas Day in 1907. For more images, please visit the Georgetown County Digital Library's Belle W. Baruch Collection online at http://www.gcdigital.org/cdm/landingpage/collection/p163901coll005
