Unknown lady and gentleman are puzzling me

[jettejjane]

Happy Easter everyone.

More pics from Harvington School.  These 2 puzzle me.  Both appear to be written by the same hand.  The gentleman on bike 1925 obviously gave  this to his fiance Ena. Who I assume was a teacher or pupil at the school.   Moving on to Ena?  in chocolate  factory this looks to me like WW2 from her dress.    On the back she refers to her job  but it looks like its written by the bike gentleman.   There is a big gap between pictures and not sure what to think.

I have a picture of a lady called Enid could be her?

The way I'm reading it is that the photo was sent to someone else
other than Ena as he mentions her by name.
The second photo is explaining what his job is at the chocolate factory.
The woman could be anybody.
I can't see any mention of a school.

I agree re the same hand and the description of the writer’s job.
I wondered if the name of the lady was Eva.

Yes I see what you mean. These pictures were with a job lot I purchased of pictures of pupils, teachers, individual and group shots and pics of school. Many of former pupils sent pictures to headmistress of their children and marriages etc. They have names on back of married name and maiden name.

Yes could be Eva. And I too agree with what Jim said. Perhaps  the gentleman sent pics to his fiancés headmistress at the school. Many pupils  seemed to keep in touch with Mrs Turner the Head after they left.

I come at it from a different thought in which it is Ena on the bike photo text, and much later is actually Ena in the chocolate factory.   If I had bought a brand new bike [bit of money there] I would take it first to see my intended, and give her a ride, with Ena taking the photo first.
Presumably  Ena was his wife in the second one, and agreeing the handwriting is the same, suggests to me it was him just documenting the photo's at a much later date.    During a 'Cuppa' chat of family photo's she was relaying to him what her job entailed in the factory.

That’s how I saw it at first too until I heard the other explanation. Indeed factory pic is later date. Quite possibly she was still in touch with her old school and keeping the Head Mrs Turner involved in her life after school. That would explain why the pictures were with the school batch. As I said many former pupils sent family pics to Mrs Turner after leaving the school.,

There may even be a picture of her as a pupil but I have very little to go on regarding identification just a first name of Eva or Ena. There are a few Evelyn’s and pics with just initial E and surname, pupils and teachers.

I will keep at it.

I still go with the man writing the second one from his occupational point of view.
It seems to me that he is proud of his job taking care of the latest machinery. That could even be a promotional photo.

It could indeed be a promotional shot. Having looked at several sites for Cadbury.
