This could just be a little after 1930. My grandparents outside their pub, The Acorn Inn pictured with the Bass bottle car. The car can be seen in the National Museum of Brewing in Burton on Trent.
They kept the pub from 1926 onwards and grandad died in 1934. Granny kept it until her death in 1973.
Grandad is on the left and granny in the doorway of the pub.

Another set of Great Aunts and Uncles.
Great Auntie Sarah (born 1911) with Great Aunt Madge (born 1925) and Great Uncle Bert (born 1923).
Love the mud on Uncle Bert's knees!
As there was 20 years between Sarah and my Nana, she was like a Mother to her and as she had no children of her own was very close to my Mum and her siblings, and then me when I came along.
Sarah died in 1991.
Madge died in 2007.
Bert died in 2010.

Bridesmaid Helen Richardson is following the couple, the four little girls are all the bride's Robinson nieces, Kathleen Steel is the taller one behind them. Behind the bridesmaids is either the bride's brother Jim, (James William Jacob Steel) or Jack (Alfred John Steel) and the bride's stepmother Harriet.

http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb93/JillontheA272/Family/AdelaRoseSteelb1895HerbertEdwardCrispb1898wedding2 5April1929RoyalOakEastWittering.jpg
This was taken outside the Royal Oak in East Wittering where Rose's father Alfred was landlord and where the wedding reception was held. I'm told the dress was a very pale blue, and one of her great granddaughters has a fragment of the embroidery from it. The newlyweds set up home in a former coastguards cottage across the road.
If you live in a pretty seaside village your friends will all want to stay...

I don't know much about this photo, but it seems to be a school group ( or maybe a Sunday School :confused:) and I think it was taken in Cheshire in about 1928

This one I have no idea at all.
Who is it?
Where is it?
Had she just graduated from university?
It possibly has a connection somewhere to my OH's Stanbridge family. The pic was sent to me by fellow member of GF and a distant cousin of OH's Mike in Cumbria.
He doesn't know who it is either, it was found in a collection of an aunt of his.

These photos are of Flempton School in Suffolk taken in the late 1920s. My dad Alfred Benjamin (Ben) Marsh is second from the right at the back and my aunt Jeannie Alice (Jean) Marsh is third from the right in front of him.
This was also my primary school and my first teacher had also taught my dad and aunt.

This is George Renyard (1887 - 1957) and his wife, Ethel nee Fursse (1892 - 1973) on the left of the photo. Most likely summer 1923. I don't know where the photo was taken, but they lived in Hackney. George is second cousin twice removed to my OH.

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!

Early 1920's. The necklace is actually a photo of her fiancé at the time. She was engaged before she met my grandfather and apparently dumped him because he embarrassed her whilst in the market as he was commenting on ladies underwear. :eek::eek::eek::eek:
