Paula,

Not a problem.

Some have yet to be scanned but I shall see what I can do with the ones that have.  I have a very poor wedding photo I would dearly love to be restored.  It is bad shape is blurred too (and it features the above Rose too).

Thank you for the offer.

Regards,

James R. Yeowell.

I never met her, being born a long time after her passing.  I do gather she was a stern lady though.

I have posted in a restoration thread and she is present in two of the photos.  I shall scan some more in someday soon too.

Actually my g grandmother was also Caroline..... Her mother was Caroline and the Caroline in the picture was her mother in law and her mother-in- law was also Caroline.... so far I have 7 Caroline's in the same line of the tree... hence my confusion lol ;-)

I have looked into all four branches of my tree and was lucky enough to have met one of my great grandparents (only just!)

Maria Bray (Radlett) 1894-1967
Rose Davis (Chambers/Pike) 1892-1983
Martha Monks (Smith) 1868-1951
Mary Abrehart (Lavender) 1878-1963

I remember Rose. I have an image of her sat in a chair with a croched blanked over her knees watching me play at her feet. I'd have been 3 and she was 91!

I don't have pictures of Maria, as they were destroyed when their house was bombed in WW2, but I have got pictures of the last three. I'm on the wrong laptop, so can only post one. Here's Rose:


Lavender (Ruislip, Mitcham), Abrehart (Edmonton, Mitcham), Smith (Edmonton, Enfield, Mitcham), Flook & Monks (Lambeth, Bristol), Radlett (Stepney, Southwark, Somerset), Bray (Rotherhithe), Chambers (Oaksey, Sapperton), Davis (Oaksey, Kemble)
