Texas postal worker hopes to deliver World War II era letters to Jacksonville family

Alvin Gauthier said he found a few undelivered letters from a veteran during the time of World War II. Although he is trying to find the family to deliver them too, there’s a hiccup, the letters have no address except for Jacksonville, Arkansas.

The undelivered letters range from 1942, 1943, 1944, and 1945 all have an U.S. Army Stamp on them.  Gauthier said he also found out the person who wrote the letter was Marion Lamb and he was in the infantry unit.

“I don’t know how it got there (in his work bag filled with mail), I am clueless,” Gauthier said.

The letters have no address on them except that it’s for a Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lamb in Jacksonville, Arkansas.
