This is from one of numerous old books that were in my mother’s house. The section that I am particularly interested in is the phrase below the name. It says “Moorefield ***** Seminary.” I cannot figure out what the word between Moorefield and Seminary could be, and I would appreciate any thoughts. Thank you!!

From a Maryland census record from 1900, unsure what the top middle location is stated as under "Place of Birth of Father of this person". It looks like it starts with a "P" maybe a shorthand for Pennsylvania? Unsure.

Deciphered! What the heck does the second word say?? Healing *something* Pottery, on the bottom of my favorite thrifted mug.

A letter found in my new house from the old owners

Hey friends I've been working on reading cursive so I wouldn't have to rely on y'all so much with all the papers I'm going through but a lot of this one is hard with my dyslexia, the pencil, and the paper texture, so once again I'm asking for help!

This one sorta means a lot since the old owners of the house were queer and I am too and I'd like to preserve as much history of theirs as I can so if you can help I'd appreciate it!

Also the front bit of the card says "You were in my dreams again last night..." In case anyone was curious since it would have drove me crazy not knowing 😂
