But why are the flags and bunting out and who are the men? I think it’s Skinningrove but am I right?

This photograph of a group of Loftus Youth Club members was taken about the time that the Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding visited Loftus. l-r: Jackie Faye, Shirley Laws, Moira Smith, Bernard Powell, Jackie Noble, Beryl Watson (her father was a Police Inspector), Marion Cox, Rita Ward(Mrs.Unthank), ’Taxi’ Goldby. Thanks to Mrs. R. Unthank for the photo and information. Also Eric Johnson for update on names.
A lovely studio portrait of the two ladies, but I don’t know anything else about them. The lady standing on the left could be Isabel Thurlow of Boulby Barns Farm. (Image courtesy of Mrs. J. Wilson)
This family group was taken in about 1910 at Boulby Barns Farm. John and Isabel Thurlow are seated, second right and second left, surrounded by their two sons and seven daughters. Georgina is third from the left, at the back, and the child seated in front is Amy, one of their granddaughters. Can someone tell us any more about the family and why they have all got together for the photograph? I now know that the daughters were Mary Ann, Bessie, Lucy Sarah, Barbara, Ada and Georgina. Thanks to Anne Codling, great granddaughter of Ada, for her comment – the two sons would be Henry and Christopher. John and Isabel had a third son, Edwin, who had died in 1881.

Mrs. M. Conn, Ray’s mother, is in this photograph taken at a church bazaar at Hinderwell. Rev. Berriman, Rev. Ward, Mr. Blaylock, Mr. Codling, and Mr. Tom Husband are in the group. Sheila Roots advises: ”This photo was taken in the Interegnum and the Rev. Ward came from Scarborough most weekends. The lady in front is Mrs. Perriman – wife of the Rev. Perriman from Whitby (not Berriman) The other gentleman is Thomas Harland & not Thomas Husband. Mr. Blaylock was a Church Warden – the other Churchwarden – William Harrison (my father is missing from the photo) (Image courtesy of Mr.R.Conn and thanks to Sheila for the update.) Copyright-John Tindale, Whitby.
Mrs. Wilson thinks that this photo was probably taken at Boulby Barns. Georgina Codling (Thurlow) is on the left of the back row. Could Isabel be the little girl in the middle? I wonder what the occasion was. The young woman on the left, at the front, is holding a small parcel. (Image courtesy of Mrs. J. Wilson)
Yes I would have been there with these women, can you recognise anyone?
That’s what the banner says behind these men, but who were the men, what was the occasion and what group do they represent? Back row: ? Knight, ??, ??, John Waite?, ??, ??, ??, ??, ??, Fred Simpson, ??, Maurice Brignall, ??. Front row: Colin Riley, ??, Brian Shaw, ??, Chris Williams, Eric Parker, ??.
