Rosie...You are a star...That fits in very nicely with the documents I have. I never expected a connection to the Ord family and thought it was a random photo. Thanks so much for taking the time.  :-*

Perhaps you could pass it on with other docs to Suffolk Records Office at Bury St Edmunds when you are ready.
