Front row: A. Morrell, Mona Maddren, Mrs Kennedy, Sandy Wilkinson, Mrs Lettin, Jim Winter, Mrs Hodgson, Ada Kennedy, Mrs Hartley, Tom Wheatman.

Stewart Dixon advised: “Mona Maddren sitting front row is my 1st cousin 3x removed. This was two years before she became Mrs Pascoe after marrying John Pascoe. I’m guessing the Maddren in the middle row is her mother, Lottie Maddren (nee Boyers). She will have been 21 years in this picture. Mona’s father, Samuel Maddren died in 1918 in France and Flanders when she was 2 years old.”
