8 September 1903
Sarah Barks and Joseph Reckless are the bride and groom. They were married on 8 September 1903 at St Giles, Balderton, Nottinghamshire
Sarah was the sister of my great grandfather George Barks although he and his wife Jane don't appear to be on the photograph. Jane was pregnant at the time so perhaps couldn't travel from Burton on Trent where George and his family now lived. Seated next to the bride are her parents George Barks 1837-1905 and Mary nee Pratt 1841-1918. Any Barks or Reckless descendants out there who recognise anyone else please contact me.

This is Sidcot school in Somerset which is a Quaker establishment. My grandfather and his siblings and many distant cousins attended as students and my great-grandfather was a schoolmaster there.
In 1908, when the picture was taken, my great aunt would have been a pupil, but I don't think she is in this picture, or if she is, not at the front! I can't think what they were doing was at all energetic!

Edinburgh - Shandon Place
  That's my mother's printing. The "ME" at top left is her. She's also top left in the second photo. She and her two sisters, Hilda and Amy, attended a little home-school class in Edinburgh. This would be about 1909-1910. When we went back to Shandon Place in 1950 she found and spoke to her old neighbor and classmate Beatrice, and heard news of Beatrice's brother Archie, another classmate. I'm sure they're all long since gone by now. The youngest was my Aunt Amy who was born in 1906. But if anyone has any qualms about living persons, take it off please and I will sanitize it before I put it back up. (I won't be back until tonight or sometime tomorrow.) I'm afraid the quality has not held up. Is there any help for them?

Edward Stanbridge 1863-1946
Railway Clerk, Midland Railway in Burton on Trent. I believe he worked his way up to Station Master. Unsure when this was taken.

 My grandfather, Maurice Gleeson (1864-1929), holding my father, also named Maurice,(1905-1983), while my grandmother, Johanna (Judith?) nee Ryan,(1868-1845), holds the twin, Patrick (1905-1908). The photo would have been taken ca 1906, possibly in Kookynie, WA, but more likely Kalgoorlie WA
