Date: 1937


I believe that the photograph was taken outside of Caroline Street, Methodist Chapel in 1937. The lady with with a baby on her knee is my grandmother Esther Steel (1899) the baby boy is my father George Albert Steel (born January 1937) The lady behind Esther Steel, on the right with grey hair is my great grandmother Jane Campbell. The lady in the back row( holding a little girl) was called Grace Hope
