I was about to post that link,  just thinking that the archivist suggesting these are everyday people from cardiff docklands is a bit optimistic, especially the fourth one with the gent in a striped blazer.

Hi all
Ive just had a chance to look at all those photos from Glamorgan Archives.
I have ancestral connections to Cardiff and the area, albeit from an earlier era, but anyone taking a look at these pics may now realise never to poo-poo Ancestry's DNA "Ethnicity Estimate" when they get their results!
The camera never lies
