This is a family photo of a friend of mine. She thinks the two young girls are Katherine and
and Elizabeth Jones in Wales C 1910 - 1920.

Sorry I don't have more information I have asked her to send more.

What she would like to know is what this uniform could be.
I have been looking for brass band uniforms with out much luck

Q, I would not have thought of brass band uniforms, clever thought :D
Maybe she knows where they lived or where she thinks they lived.

DIZZI IS THE EXPERT ON UNIFORMS I THINK. :D

I was hoping that Dizzi would be the one to help.
Just discovered that mt friends grandparent were called Septimus and Elizabeth Jones.
I think they were from South Wales.

I had a quick look on Ancestry and found all the Septimus's, decided
to wait for more info. Apparently Her brother who lives in Wales has made a start on
the family tree, but they don't know who the man is in the photo, maybe an older
brother of the two girls.

Maybe best to wait to hear more from her.

Septimus's sounds a bit rude. :lol: :lol:

I have spoken with my friend Katherine, her half brother
who lives in Wales UK has been doing the tree but has got
stuck at the grandparents, Septimus and Elizabeth Jones.
Elizabeth's maiden name was also Jones, as was probably half of Wales.

Will let you know more when Catherine gets more details from her brother.
