Edward Wenlock and Family on Narrowboat
« on: Tuesday 08 September 20 08:01 BST (UK) »
I wondered if it could be restored?

The member said "My Great, Great Grandparents and Great Grand parent Edward Wenlock on “Baron”"  :)

I sort of had to rush this one, but at least it's not yellow anymore   ;D

Gosh thank you all!  And Japeflakes, what a brilliant find, how amazing to have sight of the boat so many years later.  I'll pass all the restores (and the find) on to the member.  She will be thrilled!
