The date given is March 9, 1933. On the back row, right, is his father Harry Mountford, and next along is Fred Shuker. The young woman standing, second from right, is Bob’s mother, Irene Williams, who went as Rene Williams  pronounced, says Bob, as “Reen”. Bob wonders if anyone can identify the others?
