This photo of the Slater family was probably taken in late 1906 as Bertha was born on 9th December 1905.

Yes this is my father's family. Going from left to right it is Bill , Grandfather William, Ann, Jemima my Grandmother with Bertha, Myra and Mary and my father Horace in front of them. William died quite young but the other children lived quite long lives. Indeed, Anne and Mary never married and lived in the same house all their lives until they died both over 100 years old. When Anne went to the doctor in her 90s he was astonished there was no full medical records as she had never gone to a doctor.

Thank you David for your most interesting contribution to our website. This should appear immediately on the website.  Apologies for the delayed reply but it was due to the sad and sudden death of our Archivist, Ruth Hooper. Regards. Paul Walpole, Assistant Archivist.
