Yesterday a reader identified the person in the photo below from my selection of photos on my Mystery people & places page. It is so great when this happens!
We now know that this young lady in the photo above is Barbara Rabet, my grandmother’s older sister. Her age and the outfit she is wearing is still unknown. I know that my grandmother joined the Wrens for a very brief time, but from my research on the web, Barbara’s outfit does not match the wrens uniform, in particular the hat. Unless Jersey Wrens wore a slightly different hat?
Anyway my thanks goes to the reader for identifying one of my mystery photos, and I look forward to sharing this information with my family!
