Notes and Questions

Useful - spellings of quite a few male names and ranks we have come across in Norway.
Henry Rust (who shows up in several of Nellie's letters) must be Harry's cousin (his middle name is Rust, and I think that was his mother's maiden name).
And we may have interpreted the handwritten name "Favor" as something else. We'll need to re-review.
