Many thanks for this one Fred. This is my maternal Grandfather, who died before I was born and this is the only Photo I have ever seen of him.
His father died before he was two years old, leaving my Great Grandmother with 3 young children. The eldest was just 9 years old.

I'm very pleased for you Trish. These old photo's certainly are worth their weight in gold.
