Hello Desmond
There is a mountain of picture still to get through, I was always aware of a Whittles of Weybridge connection since attending boarding school in Yateley, where on arrival one of the teachers (who lived in Weybridge) asked me if I was one of the Whittles from Weybridge?
Its amazing we never met any as we only lived in Chertsey a mile or two up the Road.
If I come across any old pictures I will post them as this is the best way to preserve them.
Best regards
Wayne

Hello All
Just had some info, if you go back to page 14 look at reply 134, the picture at the bottom listed as unknown Whittles
in the picture the man on the right is George Alfred senior, the man on the left is Billy Smith senior his brother in-law and partner in the Smith's and Whittles Fair.
I still cannot work out if the lady on the right is Lavinia because the lady on the left looks more like her in her later life pictures, if the lady on the right is Lavinia she lost a lot of weight when she got old.
I cannot work out who the baby is either, but that is G A Whittle sitting on the right

The first picture is at my uncle Alfie's wedding to Aunt Rosie Crick
The second is my Dad his brother Alfie and their cousin Mr Jones

I have many pictures, its funny because the big ones wont load onto this site but all the little ones (that I thought were a stupid small size) do.
If you know any of the faces get in touch, the Whittle-Botton connection comes from my Grandmother Sybil and her sister Nelly, as Nelly married Jimmy Botton and moved to Skegness and started the Pleasure Beach Amusements

The next three pictures are of my Aunt Joyce, my Dads sister who died in a tragic traffic accident aged 24
I never met her as I was born years after.
She is on quite a few of the group pictures, she looks and was a very popular kind and lovely person
