Thoday Family portrait
My grandfather was Lancelot Thoday (1888-1975) - 3rd from right in front row. His father was Ingle Few Thoday (1856-1944) and his mother was Emily (ne Smith). To answer a previous contributor's question - there was another Ingle Few Thoday - Ingle Few's father was also called Ingle Few Thoday (1829-1883). It was this latter Ingle Few who married Ester Searle.

Can anyone give a date for this photo please? My Dad and his two sisters, Robert, Rose and Ellen Hensher lived with their Aunt Mary nee Cousins(or Elsom) after the tragic death of their mother Rose in 1918. Dad was born in 1915.

Claude Thoday
Claude Thoday visited our family in Haileybury Ontario in the early 1970's. He had grown up!

What year was this photo?
My Father was Gerald Thoday, front row right. He lived in Saskatchewan and Ontario, Canada, but was obviously visiting relatives in England at this time. I notice his cousin Kathleen is in the picture; my middle name is Kathleen, after her.
If anyone is interested in more of the Canadian relatives, I can be contacted at nkmcss@coppernet.net

You are right!
Florie Searle ~ Arthur Pont Searles daughter. He had two daughters who used to push the barrows behind him when they took flowers to the station. He was very controlling over them and they never married.

Could this possibly be Florrie Searle who used to sell vegetables in the village?
