Title: Sussex family photo?
Post by: mrstar on Tuesday 11 October 11 14:59 BST (UK)

Hello,

My husbands grandmother has a large collection of photographs which belonged to her parents and grandparents. In with the Sussex lot (her mother BROOKER PENIFOLD) was this photograph. It may be mixed up and be from Buckinghamshire but we do believe it to be from Sussex. Her relations were mainly from HORLEY and COPTHORNE

If anyone recognises anyone in the photographs please get in touch as we are stuck!!

Thankyou  :)

Hello mrstar,

Having lived 2 miles from Copthorne and four miles form Horley for a while, I would have put this as Horley, rather than Copthorne.

There is a local history group in Horley, they may be able to advise you.

Just bear in mind, Horley is in Surrey.

Jo.

Indeed!
Was just going to mention this and I saw you had already done so!
