UNKNOWN WEDDING at KINGS ARMS
INN:
Beryl Bellamy sent in this photo hoping someone can identify the people
involved. It was taken at a wedding at the Kings Arms Inn,
sometime in the early 20th century. Any ideas please contact
Sue. |
| Ideas so far: Looks to
be around the turn of the century? Younger men look to be in Boer
War uniform? Maybe the bride & groom in the centre, with a groomsman
also in uniform, and two younger flower girls, two bridesmaids & perhaps a
father of the bride? |
