Hi Eileen,
good to hear from you. I am in the wedding photo, I'm the one with the seriously dodgy looking fringe, kindly cut my my mum!
We are on face book so will look you up but you will need to let me know your surname now. Mine is Emery. I will look you up and send you a photo of my family. I am married to Pete and we have four children.
 I will thank Sandra. I think it was pure luck she came across your entry as she was trying to trace her own relatives. Auntie Betty told you have been waiting a long time for information. It's a shame really isn't it that we are close relatives  and all lost touch? I guess we were all to young to think about keeping in touch with cousins we'd rarely seen and we all lived so far apart. I am really bad at keeping in touch even with the family I am aware of I'm afraid. Sometimes life is just too busy which is a shame.
Kind Regards
Val

Hello Eileen,

My name is Val and I am the daughter of Margaret Finn. It was my school friend Sandra who first contacted you and then sent me the link. I remembered your name but do not have very clear memories of your family apart from Dorothy who I think is about the same age as me. I think she and I were both bridesmaids at Auntie Betty's wedding? Also I have a vague memories of your mother lending me Dorothy's first communion dress.
My mum was delighted she would not have to buy one but I was clearly much chubbier  and a bit taller than Dorothy and the dress pulled in every direction on the day. I still have a photograph which I keep well hidden!

If you visted us in Portsmouth you may have had toffee apples as my dad used to make them regularly, usually on a Sunday morning. I blame him for all my fillings!   

I hope you are able to find out what you need to about your family tree now. I may have some old photographs but I don't think I have any of your family. I'll have a look and get back to you.

Hope to hear from you soon
Kind Regards
Val
