LCWilliams bridesmaids 4a

Narrative

Found in the wedding album at Helford House March 2009. Bridesmaids at the wedding of EMFrancis and LCWilliams.

There were actually 6 bridesmaids - 2 have big floppy hats, 4 have little hats.
All these are left-to-right:
1A Brenda Fielder, EMFrancis, big-who?
2A Who??? (a third floppy hat?), Perhaps Bertie Francis, Brenda Fielder
3A Brenda Wells, Maisie, Maudie, Brenda Fielder. Is that Hywel waving a brick? Who is the woman behind Maisie? Who is the woman in front of Hywel? AHA! At the Williams family party on 5 Sep 2009, Brenda Wells tentatively identified the girl in front of Hywel as Nona, and the Woman behind the brick as Blanche. Nona was 2 years younger than Maudie. Blanche would have been 32. Looks plausible. BUT! The woman behind the brick is also on photo 5A, it's the same hat. Could that possibly be Blanche?
4A Brenda Wells, Maisie, Maudie, Brenda Fielder. Who is the man in the hat? Who is the bridesmaid behind Maudie?
5A Don't know the two bridesmaids on the left at the back. Then Brenda Wells, Brenda Fielder, Must be Maudie hidden, Maisie. Who is the woman in the skewed hat and the fur trim? She's the same one behind Maisie in 3A.
6A. Maudie, think there's someone hiding behind her, Brenda Wells, EMFrancis, Brenda Fielder, small-who?, Maisie.

Ivor Fielder, from the Ivor Fielder conversation source, thinks that the tall chap in 2A is not Bertie Francis but is Ken Wallace, and the other big bridesmaid is Sylvia Francis.

Ivor also wonders if the gangsterish chap in 4A is Walter Buxton.

Aha! The other two are Sylvia Francis and Kath Francis. From Brenda Fielder in conversation on 6 sep 2009.
