			<title>Similar Find but with a Quandry</title>
			<link>http://www.newsworks.org/index.php/arts-and-culture-everything/item/47035-claimed-with-devotion-1940s-love-letters-found-on-beach#comment-48341</link>
			<description><![CDATA[This story immediately hit home for me because I found love letters from 1913 - 1943 in the attic of the house I lived in at the time I found them. They're tender and make reference to many now-historic periods of our history, wars, the Great Depression, etc. as well as the Steel Pier where the couple met. I'd like to seek out the writer of the letters or her descendants; I don't believe the recipient of the letters, a man who previously lived in the home where I found the letters, had any offspring. And that hints at my quandry. The woman who wrote the letters married someone else during the correspondence yet continued her relationship with the man she met on the Steel Pier and who had resided in my home years before me. If I could find this woman, who would be over 100 years old now, or, more likely, her descendants, how could I possibly hand over the letters to them, revealing that their mother or grandmother had an affair for many of the years she was married to their father or grandfather? I'd like to do some research on the letters, mentioned locations and so on, maybe even write a book (with names changed), but even to just interview the descendants, let alone hand over the letters to them (which are rightfully theirs), I couldn't help but alter, likely for the worse, this family's view of their ancestors. Any thoughts or suggestions? By the way, there were also some very racy photographs found with the letters but I'm pretty doubtful that any of the people in the photographs were the letter writer or recipient. Thanks in advance for any responses - and congratulations to the people in this Newsworks story who were able to be reunified with their letters and this piece of their family history.]]></description>
