Didn't those guys in uniform look smart and clean ... and just look at the average 18 - 20 year old today ...not necessarily dirty, but definitely scruffy !

A long long time ago I put up a picture of the five Bartlett children for restoration. Well you did a smashing job on it, and I'm grateful.
So I thought I would put this one up to let you see how the Bartlett boys developed.
Seated on the left we have my dear little Dad, Joe Bartlett, next to him the baby of the family, Ernest, and seated onthe ground the big brother William Denchfield Bartlett.
No one can remember which footie team it was, but Castle Street or St Mary's, Reading,  are two names I have been given.

This is a photo of my ancestor Charles Webb (actually my grandfather) and his sister Louisa. Charles has given me sooooo much of a problem while I have been researching the family history.He died in 1946, a few years before I was born and no one in the family talked about him. I have only just recieved this photo and it seems so strange that I have had to wait until I am a few years away from retirement  myself to know what my grandfather looked like.

Nice picture, anita. At least you know what your Webb looked like.
My great grandfather was a Webb from Winchester, and he gave us all the dickens of a time trying to track him down. Of course, the fact that he didn't marry my great grandmother, her being married to someone else at the time, didn't help much.
