Scope and Contents note

This collection consists of 58 letters written by and to LaVerne Stoner of Seattle, Washington, between 1937 and 1949. The letters are arranged first by Outgoing (arranged by date) followed by those Incoming (arranged by correspondent, then by date). The bulk of the letters are written by LaVerne to her husband, Henry T. Stoner, while he was in the Navy aboard the U.S.S. Brazos (1937-1939), the U.S.S. Yorktown (1945), and the U.S.S.
