On the back of #15 it say's; Mr. Mrs. & Miss Sandford June 3rd 1917.  And on another copy of the same photo it say's; "That is Maud Freds sister with us".

There are several photos in bad condition of different soldiers, very difficult to make out which ones are the same men.

doesn't help that the way I have the photos I've confused self
... #15 is group of 3 and #12 is group of 5

So the young lady, Maud, is sister of Fred Sandford, not Mrs Sandford ... unless Mrs Sandford  is 'Fred' short for something  :D ... it was the noses and ears again that made me think so

Some of the names I can't make out and the layout of the writing makes it a little dificult to work out who is who on those two photo's mare.  [12&15]

OK,,,, On the back of #12 it say's; Fred & *****
                                                   Maud [Freds sister Sybil Earl]our housemaid Ada *****]- parlourmaid
I'm probably confusing everyone including self here ... so for #12, not sure I understand the bracketing but I'll put the way I interpret it ...

In front we have the Sandfords ..Is the name of Mrs Fred Sandford, seated, not legible? or a questionmark?
and at the back we have Maud Sandford/Fred's sister, Sybil Earl the housemaid  and Ada ? the parlourmaid

Couldn't make out the name of Mrs Sandford. Nor can I make out the surname of Ada.
The bracketing is has it appears on the photo, something not correct, 3 brackets?.
But I think it is as you have it.

Obviously that isn't going to work ... unless a Sandford married a Sandford  ::)
Shame we don't have Mrs Sandford's first name, she could be another of the Ray girls
... I did do a quick look for a marriage on freeBMD but didn't spot anything.
