Abbeyhill Children

Thank you to Richard Keltie for allowing me to reproduce this photograph of of a group of children, including his late mother Winifred (Winnie)  Butler, on the back row, marked by the cross on her hat.

Children

1922

"This postcard photo of children, was almost certainly taken in Abbeyhill.  It's dated on reverse 'August 30th 1922'.

My late mother Winifred 'Winnie' Butler is top row, second from left.  Unfortunately no location is given, and nobody else in the picture is identified.

Perhaps some keen follower of your website may be able to shed more light on it.  My mother lived in Cambusnethan Street for many years before she got married."
