This image was kindly contributed by Jan Briggs- McGowan of Ontario, Canada and is believed to date from about 1892 and to be of a group of children from Nettlestead school. Jan believes her grandfather’s brother Archer Manser, born 1880, is on the left of the photo holding the pole and he looks no older than 12. She sees a resemblance in the boy in the middle with the flower in his lapel, and possibly this was his younger brother George born 1882. If you can name any of the children shown or date the photo more accurately please email wateringburylhsociety@gmail.com .
