My Family Group Photographs

Well here is another Blog about Family Photographs, Groups of My Family, on outings and at Weddings and other celebrations, this one seems to have taken me a lot longer to write, mainly because I keep getting distracted by all the memories the pictures remind me of…Then I start chatting to OH about this and that and the writing is not getting done or I have been just sitting looking and wallowing in the memories, some make you laugh and some make you cry and also wishing that people in them were still here to share these memories with you, but on the whole all of these pictures bring back such happy memories for me and the ones taken before I was born I remember family members talking about them and telling me their memories of the that particular day and the story behind the picture……..snapshots in time, never repeated but very cherished for lots of reasons.
 This Photograph for me is and will always be my all time favourite, 10 Brothers & Sisters all together..2nd from the right is my Dad, 3rd from the right front row is the Eldest born in 1896 and 1st right is the youngest born 1921 Charles (Uncle Charlie) My Nan had 14 children in all, 3 dying in their first few months of life and David who died a few years before this picture was taken. They have all gone now, Uncle Charlie passed away on 5th November last year, aged 90, it knocked me for six a bit, he was so like my Dad in his ways & in the way he talked etc it was comforting to have him around. I have such lovely memories of all of them and they all, except Uncle Dan at the back next to my Dad, got married and had children and they have had children and so it goes on.....
Here are some of the children (their Grandchildren) at a family party in about 1971 I think, these have all got their own families now...
 These 2 photographs below have just been borrowed to me recently when my Aunt was having a sort out and came across them, Dads father in the top one, looks like a pub outing and Dads Mum in the second one, I was over the moon to see these, I think they are just brilliant.....
Don't you just love all the ladies Wonderful hats, what year do you think these two are taken, I though maybe 1920-30...
Here are a couple of old wedding photos that I have in my collection
The one above is one of my Dads cousins when she got married and at the end on the right Dads Mum...coo I wish I had known her as I got older, she died when I was 9, because from all accounts she was a real character, even having her own chair at local Pub where she used to go in her later life for a natter and a pint at lunchtime every day.
This is one of my Mums, Sisters wedding, don't they all look lovely...
This one above is taken at the time of a wedding in 1931(date on back) but I have no idea whose wedding..
Now this one is one of my cousins weddings held in December in the 60's, hence the red velvet bridesmaids dresses.And the one just above held about 5 years ago another cousins wedding, her brothers wife had just had twins, on left in picture.
This is a picture of a Group of Seven Sisters, which I think is fabulous, they only had one brother..They are cousins of my Dads, and I was sent this picture after being contacted by a descendant of one of them about the family tree. They look so similar to my Dads sisters don't they..
A Modern Group now..the School Group picture, this is my Sons taken in 1990, one for my grandchildren to look back on and reminisce..
                        ********************************************
And I will end this Blog with a gorgeous picture of one my Dads sisters wedding photos, she's the one with the orange dress in the first picture, she was one of my Godmothers and she was such a great laugh, wonderful lady, after a couple sherry's she would always end up doing 'knees up mother Brown' showing her very fancy long bloomers that she always wore !!
This picture will be the starter for my next Blog which will be about this lovely Aunt and her Husband..........lots more to tell about them..
Till next time then.........................................

My Family Photographs

I was chatting to a couple of dear Twitter friends last week about Family Photographs, and very rashly said “think I will do a Blog about that subject next week” at the time I didn’t think that it would take so much time, but goodness me I think I could keep writing about My Family Photos for  a very long time, and keep looking and going down 'memory lane' I am very very lucky I know, to have so many, lots of them I have borrowed from other members of the Family and scanned them, so have lots on my PC that still need a Title and Date, I will get around to that eventually.

Family Photos are so wonderful in so many ways, for me when I have been given some of people that I only before knew their names and BMD dates, it has brought them back to life again and in some cases confirmed my guesses at what some aspects of their lives must have been like, going on what I have found out about them so far.
Other Photos you can see tell a story, for instance the Picnic.
My Dad was there with other members of the family and his parents, it’s the only Photo I have come across so far of him with Both Parents in the same One. What was the day like, looks like they had great fun to me. Which also means they all got on well together too.
Then there is the day out to the Southend Seaside in the old Charabang.
 Three family members that I know of in that Photo, and not just that but its also the Vehicle itself its brilliant, I’d love to have a day out in that.
The big group of mostly children outside the houses in Lundy Street, Fulham.
 Some of my family in this but who? I don’t know, but can just see my Dads Mum at the back.
Then you have more personal Photos, a Portrait of My Maternal Grandmother
 as a young women, just beautiful and one of her how I remember her in later years in her lovely soft pale blue hat that she loved.

Then there is the Photo of her with My Grandfather and my Mum and her three sisters standing by their car, Wow what a motor it looks great.
I also have some mystery Photos too, like this one  of My Paternal Grandfather (on the right) who was born in Clapham 1873, it looks like he is in some sort of Road Race, but as yet no one seems to know any more than what you see.
More of my ancestors also had Studio Photos, my Great Aunt with her children, love the Hat ! With another Great Aunt.
Then two of my Dads cousins, Phoebe and also Arthur in his uniform, so much History in the Photos and not just of my Family interest either.
Then Photos which tell of family occupations, this one taken in 1931, my Dad home on leave from India with His Dad and horse and cart outside the family home in Lundy Street, Fulham, he was a Greengrocer and went to Covent Garden every morning.
Now to ME on one of our many visits to London at Trafalgar Square with Mum & Dad when they encouraged you to feed the birds,

 I didn’t know then that all the ancestors mostly came from London !  and with my Dad holding my hand at the seaside, which always brings a tear, as I still miss him today just as much as ever,
 although he died in 1984, he held my hand a lot through my life.

In this digital age I still like to have proper Photos, don’t you ?
So here are some that also for me tell a story, my son and daughter at Cotswold Wild life park, a pony had tried to nibble her hand earlier in the day and he was telling her off and telling her NOT to put her hand out to the bird in case she got bitten again ! Bless him.
Then my youngest daughter on the back of a tractor and trailer full of hay bales at the Nursery school summer fete, gorgeous pic.
Now we have cherished pictures of our Grandchildren to pass on to future generations, Millie and Max
 and Anabel
 and the latest addition at 20 weeks, not yet born, due at the end of July
 ………..What a joy all these Photos are in their own special way, and I haven't even mentioned Family Wedding Photos, where all the family get together that haven't seen each other for yonks......maybe another Blog !........I will leave you with a Photo of my son at six months old on his first Holiday in Cornwall,
 as its his birthday today, he’s 35, but I can look at this and still remember as if it were yesterday.

Till next time then………………………………...................

By The Way if anyone has any ideas about my new Picure on Lynn's Waffles I would love to hear from you, See left of this posting.. The chap on the right is my Paternal Grandfather Born September 1873 Clapham area, where they lived till he was a lot older than this, the 2 chaps I think look like they are in a Road Race ? I know.. funny boots for a Road Race, no designer running shoes then, and wearing His cap !!
I don't know anything about this at all, I can't even read the shop names, I have tried zooming in but no luck. So any ideas would be very welcome.

Till next time then ..........................................

WDYTYA Magazine Index Pt 1

This is not really a Blog Post as such, Its Part 1 of a LONG Index, I am compiling this Index purely for my own use, as it drives me crazy trying to remember which Issue of the Who Do You Think You Are magazine I saw a particular subject covered in.
I only buy the one Magazine because it was this Program & the 1st Book that OH bought me that got me started on my Tree.
I love my Magazine arriving every month, and wouldn't swap it for anything. So I thought that maybe some more of you feel the same as me, so I thought I would share this.
It is not a totally full list of everything by any means, but it does list the major articles and subjects, I will just index 12 issues at a time, because otherwise it might stretch right down the road !! Let me know if I have made any errors and I will correct, thanks.
I hope you should be able to just copy & paste this article, then be able to print out to keep with your magazines. Thats what I'm doing.
