Nice to find this picture, one I haven't seen before. Elise Parkinson is my grandmother, Mary Elizabeth my great-grandmother and Doreen is my aunt and godmother. Thanks for publishing it.

Eileen, Joe is to the right of Doreen, the bride, and peering between Elizabeth and Winnie, he played the piano that night much to the surprise of many as they didn't know that he could play, Alice is second from the left of the photo. A great pity that the photo had faded or leached, but that was the how the processing was with some prints not being stable.
