The post in London in 1914 was almost as efficient as emailing...

Two sisters in service, Florence and Winifred Ingerfield have arranged to meet.

It is the Oliver Whitby Bluecoat School in Chichester, though we don't know why it's in our family (from West Wittering about 7 miles away), nobody recognises anyone in the picture.

It's a postcard style photo with a small rubber stamped label reading "The Westgate Studio, 40 West Street Chichester" on the back. I don' know the date, but would guess between 1910 and 1920.

This is the Art Studio at Sidcot School, Somerset during WW1. The master standing on the right is my great-grandfather, Henry Robert Clark.

Thanks Anne :)


This photo is of Sidcot School under 16s 1913 football team. Front row, far right is my great-uncle, Clifford Stanley Clark. He joined the RFA in 1916 and died whilst in the army of occupation in Cologne in 1919 aged 21.

This one is of one of the many Bass Brewery trips to either Scarborough or Blackpool I would imagine. Bass paid for their employees for a day trip to the seaside every year. Sometimes almost 20 carriages would leave Burton Station.

I bet there was a few crates of beer aboard. :D

I have no idea if any family members are amongst them.
