The CHISHOLM family

in Scotland and Nottingham

The widower Alex at Jessie's wedding to George WILSON, circa 1895, with his family. His eldest daughter Maria lived in Gt Yarmouth and was probably absent due to husband George being terminally ill with TB

...and here is a companion piece which was sent to me by Jim Bain, descended from Alex's young sister, Mrs Annie Dingwall - it shows the married couple and is in mint condition, as good as the day it was sent from Nottingham to the Highland kin...

... and here is Maria and her children: my grandfather Gerald behind, Wyn on the right with Jack behind and Trix on the left with her twin brother Bernard behind
