Hi all, The last suggestions re turner/ dennison seem to makevery good sense in view of the lack of any other evidence. Glad to see more Crowther photos appearing.
Does the attached photo mean anything to anyone?. It was among a number of photos left by my mother which we assumed were the maternal side of the family. Nobody can identify these two blokes and a number of people have remarked that the guy standing has got a look of myself and my brother about him. Just a shot in the dark but you never know.
Thanks for looking   Regards to all Terry

ps seem to be having trouble attaching photo, if it has not come thru I will try again. terry

Hi Terry
I've just posted a photo elsewhere on the site so seems to be working now. Why not try again?

Hello everyone.
                            Seeing as we are now on the pub theme again, I attach an image of the Black Horse in Mabgate. It still stands.
                             This pub is directly opposite where Mabgate Fold was. Since it was there in 1868, it would have been very familiar to George Crowther and all his children - at least to look at. I daresay they might have had the odd drink in there, as well.
                              Best wishes,
                              Paul

Hi all,

    I have a small question for you all, it might sound strange but How straight is your little pinky? According to my Gran all the Johnsons especially the males had little fingers that turn inward at the last joint. My little fingers are bent inward so are my sons. I just wondered if this was a Johnson traight or a Crowther one.

told you it was strange but interesting BEN

[PaulSlo]

Dear Ben,
                 What an interesting question ! My little fingers are fairly straight. However - though I've never noticed it before - the middle finger on my left hand turns massively to the left from its base. When I hold the hand up, and look at it, the middle finger and the one next to the little finger appear as if they were actually joined. (They're not, of course.)
                  I'd be interested to hear if Terry and Geoff have a similar displacement. My configuration, however, may be due to the fact that I used to play the piano a lot when I was young, and used to do most of the work with my left hand.
                  Best wishes,
                  Paul
