A Grand Day Out - vintage transport
Page 2

Three photographs from the collection show items of vintage transport. In the early years of the twentieth century photographs were usually taken on special occasions, which means that they tend to record out of the ordinary events, not people's everyday way of life. These three photos are records of that very special day - the day out, or the works outing. The boys' day out.

Beneath each picture I have pointed out our family members. But, unfortunately, we do not know where the photos were taken, or who the groups were.

Go to the next page to see the pictures.

'The Times' online
Many of the articles in 'The Times' online archive concern national events not directly relevant to family history. However, the court reports, then as now, are sometimes fun in a weird kind of way. On one of my many trawls through, looking on this occasion for references to 'Great Waltham', Essex, I found a weird and amusing piece about the Great Waltham poorhouse, dating from 1829. Names are mentioned, but they are not related to Edwina's Family Tree. Look under the VIEW ARTICLES section, where I have posted this article. My own title for it is, 'We Want To Work', because it had no title when it originally appeared in 'The Times'.
