I remember the girls of St. Williams taking part in The Crowning of Our Lady or something like that and they used to tell us non-catholic friends a little about the ceremony but kept it a kind of "secret".Thanks for these photos of Ince Josie, so near to my childhood home. I live in hope that one of these days one will appear that shows our row.
Hiya Josie, You haven't changed, you still look the same. Is the girl at the front on the right Carol Cowburn and the boy behind her Anthony Cunningham? I think it must have been First Communion because the boys are wearing sashes. These photographs are great, keep them coming please.
