douglas Posted February 2, 2019 #1 Posted February 2, 2019 I have a large lot of paperwork that is Japanese. Here is a photo of four pieces of paperwork. I know one is some kind of war bond. The small booklet on the right with the stork feeding babies is interesting. I will post some pages of that booklet. The story is that this man was killed during WW2, but I have no way to find out any information. Anyone read Japanese to tell what these items are? Thanks, Douglas
douglas Posted February 2, 2019 Author #2 Posted February 2, 2019 Here is another page from the booklet
Eric Queen Posted February 2, 2019 #3 Posted February 2, 2019 It's a boshi techou (母子手帳) from Hyougo Prefecture (兵庫県) 1950 It's kind of a mother/child birth/health record book. Omae (surname) 大前 ** Kazuhiro (given name) 和博 was born on July 17, 1950 Mother's name was Etsu (恵律) Father's name was Yoshi (勝) ** Yoshihiro also possible. Same characters.
douglas Posted February 2, 2019 Author #4 Posted February 2, 2019 Thank you !!! I ended up with a small box full of paperwork, including personal letters and booklets, a couple of maps and other misc papers. And several larger format black and white negatives of a Japanese family. The story I got was that someone in Japan moved into a house and found this lot of paperwork and I got it, instead if it being thrown out. Looks to me that the Japanese man moved to Brazil before the war and maybe was a dentist? Then back to Japan. The story is he went into the service and was killed in the war. That is the story I got anyway. Again, thank you for your help. Douglas
