  1. Pearl E. Richardson (b. Mar 1884) appears to be the daughter of Alonzo and Anna Richardson.

    Her Findagrave memorial is facinating.

  3. Pearl's husband Ray Frank had a sister named Maye. The card might be signed Maye F. Just speculation on my part.

    https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MLYG-CZQ Shows Ray's sister Edna M. living in Portland.

    Frank's findagrave memorial has an obituary saying his sister was called Maye:
