“And who is that...”. Photo captions are rarely as complete as we would like.
If you know any unrecognised details of the following photographs, please send them via the email button in the column to the left, and quoting the reference number in the yellow panel.
You might also have mystery snaps. Why not send scans of them with as many details as you know to the same email address.

L-R: Cecilia Finch, Rosa Ainscough, Unknown, & Margaret Finch
|
|
Margy Finch is sure the “Unknown” is a friend called Mina Jones. Taken in the Isle of Man.
Also, that the date was 1938. (What a memory!).

Finch family at Westwood. L-R Standing: Grandpa Craven, The maid, Thomas Finch, Father O’Reilly, Uncle Frank. Seated: Uncle Charlie, Aunt Flo, Grandma Craven, Grannie Finch (nee Craven), Aunt Lily with baby?

Paul Bridges emailed the following details: 1889 - Finch family visiting Craven family at Westwood, Clayton Green. Standing: John Craven (1824-1898), The maid, Thomas Finch (1844-1932), Father O’Reilly, Francis Bede Craven (1871- ?). Seated: Charles Benedict Craven (1869-1944), Elizabeth Craven (nee Hayes) (1830-1909) wife of Thomas, Grannie Finch (nee Craven) ?, Elizabeth Finch (nee Craven) (1864- ?), Thomas Finch (1889 - ?). NB. Grannie Finch could be Mary Ellen Finch (nee Craven) (1854-1949) sister of Elizabeth, but why was she called Grannie and not Aunt? Mary Cuffe (nee Craven) writes that she “...Looked at the 1901 census and the nursemaid/servant at Westwood was a Theresa, aged 15. who I remember as being the lovely lady in the kitchen who was always baking or looking after the dog - Gilly?” (That would make Theresa a three-year old at the time of the photo so I guess the maid is Theresa’s predecessor).
