The sender appears to be working in service for the Barnett family, who were living at Larkhill at the time (Larkhill House would be used as a boarding house by Abingdon School from 1945-1980). The 1911 census has a Florence Emily Potter (b. 1894) working as a servant at this address. This would have been 18 months or so after the postcard was sent but seems as good a match as ever. The recipient is Lily Millett (b. 1892 Farleigh), who the 1911 census lists as working as a housemaid at Shawford House, Beckingdon.
