This is my OH's paternal grandfather, José Ramón Bon López (1893-1963).

He ran a greengrocers shop and coal merchants in Barcelona.



I would imagine this photo was taken in the 1950s.

This is my OH's maternal grandfather, the infamous John Claud Hamilton (1895-1962).

He was born in Cork (apparently!) coming to England during WW1 and was in the merchant navy for most of his life.




This photo was taken between 1917 and 1920.

This is my paternal grandfather (second right, at the back) George Charles Burchill (1880-1951) with some unknown people, though I do wonder if any of the younger children are his.

George was a butcher by trade and lived his whole life in Bristol. He and my grandmother had 14 children whilst his five siblings only managed five children between them!


I'm not sure when this photo was taken. Maybe about 1920 or a bit before?

This is my maternal grandfather, Walter Henry Clark (1888-1965).

Walter was a designer and later qualified as an architect, though his first love was painting. He was born in Somerset but lived most of his life in London, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire.


This photograph was taken in about 1912.
