On Sunday whilst sorting my craft room out I found an envelope with some old photos in it, some of the people I know and others I don't. As my 365 project I took a photo of them and posted it on face book and tagged some family in it to see it they could recognise anyone, naturally they wanted to see them closer so I have decided to start blogging some of the photos and hopefully with the family's help I will be able to start identifying some of the people in them.
I know this is my dad, but not sure if that is my brother Clive and possibly my granny on my mum's side but not sure.
This is me but no idea who the lad is.
Uncle Vic, my mum's eldest brother.
No idea on the next four.
I think that is my cousin June on the right hand side possibly my mum or Auntie Beulah on the left.
Please leave a comment if anyone can identify anyone on here, thanks. xx
it's always such shame when you can't identify people in the family photos - i think. We have a box of old photos like this too. Hopefully your family can help you x x
ReplyDeleteThanks Louise, think we are getting there :) x
DeleteWhat wonderful photos. Hope you get some luck in finding who they are

Thanks. x
DeleteI love seeing old photos - those trousers will certainly make it easier to date them!
ReplyDeleteYes I think the clothing is going to be a great help. x
DeleteFirst picture myself dad and I think Auntie Clara. Sister of Grandmother Hunt.
ReplyDelete2nd picture. I think it might be Keith Hunt.
8th and 9th pictures.picture. I think the woman in both is the same person and am definite it was our Grandmother on our Dad's side.
You are a star Clive, xx
DeleteObviously I can't help with names, but the two girls in the last image are definitely related to you ;-)

LOL yes - I think the first is my Aunt and the second my cousin, who is the daughter to Uncle Vic in the third photo. xx
DeleteI can confirm it is Beaulahon the left and JUne on the right.
DeleteHow interesting. I do hope you can get names to faces.
ReplyDeleteI have lots of family photos and I got mum and dad to name everyone before they died. I now need to get them in an album along with their names and their position in our family.
so sensible Viv, I meant to do it but have to be honest and say I had no idea just how many photos mum had hidden away!!! We did a few but she couldn't always remember who was who either :( xxx
DeleteThe 4th photon down could be Grandmother Hunt's brother Roland who was killed in the Battle of the Somme in WW1. My mother told me that during the battle of the Somme Grandma felt uneasy and turned roung to look behind her and there was Roland in full uniform. He said he'd come to say goodbye and then dissapeared. Don't know anymore than what my mother told me.
