Clara ..I too enjoy so much this thread..........it gives life to our ancestors...and as you say ...the rest of the family never seem intrested...but I bet one day they will be and THEN  you will be asked ..."what did so and so do " etc etc.......
hope to see your rellies and say hello to them soon

Gadget...Tomkins gone very quite......must have been the Scottish Presbyterian that frighten her........that can rattle your bones....I shake in my boots thinking of my lot..... ;D

actually, this is really annoying - I'm trying to post another enhanced image, but when you forward another pic when someone else is posting, then you lose the image....

trying again

Clara

ps look at the size of these Dobson women (Clara's taken after them) - but still, comments invited, please, on this wedding photo   ;D

my grandma, Florence, must have been a whole head taller than the notorious John Arthur Shaw  ;D
