I must confess that having looked myself for info it is pretty difficult.Now its quite obvious that the two younger children are twins.Now I was unable to find literally matching birth info for twins of this time.Of course perhaps what may make it even more difficult to find info is that the given names may be in fact middle names?These would only show up as initials in birth searches for the time.

What are the names?  If it's written on the photo I can't read it clearly.  Maybe not born in this country if you can't find the births?

It is not at all clear, but isn't whatever is written on the photo in a language other than English? Is it Welsh? Or something else?

I'm sorry it is written in Welsh.The Christian names of the children are Iola and twins Elfed and Ceinwen.The year given is I believe is 1937.

Is it Welsh?

It looks like Welsh; first word appears to be 'gyda' = 'with'.  :-\
One for the decipherers and then translators I think.
