Hi Paula,

I have just been looking on the net to find out!  I just couldn't think of that name!  He looks like a mini game-keeper!

It's a charming photo.
How about the little chap in the front with the lace collar, isn't he sweet.

Hi Paula,
 
Yes it certainly is!  They all look so sweet and innocent!  It doesn't bear thinking about!

By the way, I looked it up, and it said men were wearing the Norfolk Jacket from 1880-1920  >:(
Fat lot of help that is.
