This is a photograph of my Auntie Joan Carr (as she was then), she is on the far right in the dark suit. She was Head Toy Buyer at Blacketts store in Stockton. The photograph was probably taken late 1940’s to early 1950’s. Joan was born in 1925, married Maurice Mines in 1950 and they emigrated to Canada in 1952 where she died in 2013. It would be really nice if anyone recognises couple in the middle and the three children with them.

My Grandfather Syd Parkin is in this photograph. I believe he may have been in the Durham Light Infantry, 16th battalion serving in North Africa, Italy and Greece. Anyone recognise the Cap Badges as they don’t look like DLI?
