The Lighter Side / Re: Looking for a band my mums uncle was in

Wow.. You have done your homework.. Yes it was my uncle Charlie. Unfortunately dad didn't live too long after our visit so I'm glad we made the trip to Liverpool from Essex so he could see him...

Hopefully after this post I'll be able to send the photos to you

Hi Louise.... that was a quick reply...

I will try to scan some photos and post them for you and your mum to see.
I knew dad was in a band but didn’t know the name.
Many years ago we took Dad see someone in the vicarage in Liverpool (St Albans) who I believe may have been his brother.. possibly a vicar.

Hello I don't know if anyone can help. My mum has told me of her uncle Leslie Stanley Jelfs Who was in a band called "The Gaucho Seranaders" As he was from East Ham I don't know if they played there or if they travelled. At a rough guess this would have been on the late 1920's - 1930's.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
I've added a picture of his younger days.

Hi... Just found your search for Leslie Stanley Jelfs, who was my dad... I have the same photograph as the one posted by you on this site along with others of my dad. He unfortunately passed away some 44 years ago shortly after my Mother, Elsie Jelfs.

I still have dads violin to this day.

Just been looking through the few photos that I have of him and have found a picture of dad and his brother, your mums uncle, when they lived in East Ham, London. They were aged about 6 or 7

Hope this helps
