Hi. New to site and just found your message. I have an old photogtraph showing 2 men side by side. It is in a frame (about 30" x 20") of 2 men. On the back is written:

 "Thomas Train died 1929 son of William Train station master of Hornsea.  Ebenezer Southwick of Beverley father-in-law of Thomas Train"

I have had it over 10 years having bought it in an auction at Brigg and would like to return it to one of the descendants of the two men. If you are a descendant are know of any I would be pleased to hear from you. Thanks

Hi Karen. Thanks for your replies - if you would like this photograph of your ancestor, you are welcome to it - you just need to organise collection of it. Don't know how far away you live but we are at a small village near Retford in Notts.
Will send my email by PM

Hi Karen I know its a long time since you posted this but I have just come across it. Ebenezer Southwick is my Husband's great great Grandfather. I just wondered if you had received the photo of him and if it would be possible to have a copy please as the family have no pictures of Ebenezer.
Hope to hear from you
Kind Regards
Lucy
