This seems a little odd. Nicky & Phyllis Stackelberg were as I recall living in Scotland in the 1960s. The caption suggests that the sender was a much earlier Baroness Stackelberg, who would have been a little ahead of her time sending colour postcards!
The image was a Christmas card sent in the mid-1950s from the Baroness of Stackelberg to Miss M. Chisholm of the Clan Chisholm Society and then forwarded to Mrs. Hazel Chisholm Mathews of Oakville, Ontario. The reference to Barbara McKenzie, who married George Chisholm Senior in 1778 was simply to give context to the Chisholm ancestry in the Wester Ross area.
