The Lee's were friends of mine  :) Used to visit them when they visited Portsmouth. This'd be back around thirty five years ago. Ron' was the elder man back then. Lovely guy.

 Got to know some of the Price's too. Peter or Paul, can't remember now. But, he showed me some photo's of his people. Ones we now see in books and on web sites, captioned " The Price Family On The Road ". Procession of vardo's.

 Good people, all.

Hi Steve, Thanks for the info. I will check out that web site.

Marona; Sorry, ye've misread me. I refer to no particular web site. It's just that a couple of photo's, black and white ones, now appear to be pretty well ubiquitous.

 Indeed, I was passed a couple of books of 'Gypsy Photographs' recently and straight away spotted one of the snap shots I'd been shown by Mr Price, in his trailer.

 Saying that; A Google Images search of " Price's " will as likely bring up a link or three to the shots  ;)
GAITES (Alverstoke / Bath Pre 1850)
CURTIS (Portsmouth & 1800's Berkshire).
BURGE (Dorset, Somerset and Hampshire)
HUNTLEY (Dorset, Hampshire, Sussex, 'Surroundings')
