How about this group to challenge your memory?!
This has to be the largest group photo we have ever featured on our website, and we said we would be astounded if we would be able to identify everyone in it. To start with we want to know what was the occasion for this group to get together, when was it taken and who is in it? In order to make it a little easier to view on the website we showed you the main photo first, followed by two close-ups.
With assistance from George Rose and Andy Bermingham and yours truly we have been able to identify most of the people in this photograph, with just a few exceptions. These are listed below, but we still have a ways to go before saying that we have accounted for everyone. Please contact us if you think you may be able to assist with those who have not yet been identified.
