    Default I wonder ....

    ... if the offer to make copies still holds some 100+ years on?


    Doing a bit of searching, I find that Wilfred Emery of Cricklewood was quite an innovative chap, with one of his innovations being the Apek folding plate camera.
    I like poetry, long walks on the beach, and poking dead things with a stick.

    Good chance that it is, and I've seen somewhere in a biography that he died in 1926. Hey, that means he died at about the time when my grandma (who was in the photo on the other side), father and uncle were visiting Henry, Sarah Ann and Harry Carter Dyer (also in the photo on the other side) in Pinner.

    Sandyhall, my Carters and Dyers came out of the Otter Valley and surrounding bits of East Devon. Main names of that bunch, highly intermarried, are DYER, WHITE, CARTER, PAVER, & BRIDLE.
