I hope nobody minds but I have cleaned up the photo a little to see if would help me spot my great grandmother (Lily Santus)
I thought I would post it here to see if it would help anyone else too :)

Thanks for cleaning the photo I sent in. But I am sorry to say Lily isnt there. My mother was about the same age, and my mother is the one standing at the rear of the photo on the right just at the end of the table. See original to see more names. The one of her on her own is how I remember her.

I'm wondering if my mum and Grandma are on here, they used to live in Linney Street my mum was called Doreen Mitchell and my Grandma was called Annie, my Grandad used to sell fruit from his horse and cart.

Isn't that Isabella St looking towards Caunce St and top end of Caunce Road? My mate Harold Mercer lived in Isabella St.

Definitely not Linney street as there were no side on houses going onto it. All the houses terraced with front doors onto the street..
