Oh My Goodness, how brilliant! 😃 Huge thanks to Twitter followers, firstly @JenniPh for #FamilyHistory of the Man in today’s photo & the lady in both photos. She found Maurice John George Ponsonby & Madeline Emily Augusta Hanbury-Tracy, he was the vicar of St Marks Church in #Swindon #Wiltshire 1879-1903 Madeline has Welsh #Ancestry, that ties in nicely with the photos coming from a house clearance in #Wales & also thanks to Twitter follower Chris @CLeeEsq pics of St Marks Vicarage! Where the two photos from today and last Sunday were taken, identified by the building especially the windows. What some great detective work with very little to go on, I’m thrilled 👍😃 Big puzzle solved😊 #OldPhotos #FashionHistory

‪Sunday Pic ‬ ‪Matching the big group from last Sunday!‬ I bought together 😃 ‪A large group of young ladies wearing amazing #Hats & definitely in their Sunday best!‬ ‪😍👒👒‬ ‪House clearance #Wales ‬ ‪19 x 16 inches on grey card. ‬ ‪Too big to scan!‬ ‪Says ‘Maurice & Madeleine Swindon?’🤔‬ So Maurice is obviously the only gentleman here at the back and Madeleine must be the lady at the front, photo number 4 as she is in last Sunday’s large group too but wearing different clothes & hat! Looking at them both they look like siblings to me. I wonder if they ran a college or some type of group or is he a Vicar & these photos are connected to a Church outing or group of some type????? So many questions!!😂🤔🤔🤔 ‪#OldPhotos #FamilyHistory #FashionHistory ‬#FoundPhoto #VintagePhoto #Hats #Hat #VintageFashion

It was pouring with rain when we visited here at the beginning of October so it’s was wonderful to see that the Church was open! Well worth a visit, was beautiful 😍💒 “By Chagford square, The Church of St Michael the Archangel was dedicated in 1261 by Bishop Branscombe of Exeter Cathedral. If the name's familiar to Dartmoor walkers, it's because there's a Branscombe's Loaf up on Corn Ridge near Yes Tor and High Willhays which form the highest ground in southern England. According to the church website, 'the present building was mainly built in the early part of the fifteenth century'. Beautiful inside, look out for the commemoration to Mary Whiddon whose story inspired R.D.Blackmore to write 'Lorna Doone'. Outside, in the graveyard, find the memorial stone to James Perrott who is seen as the father of Dartmoor letterboxing. In 1854, Perrott left a bottle at Cranmere Pool in which visitors left their calling cards. Over the years, this morphed into today's 'Letter Box' as marked on the Ordnance Survey Explorer OL28 'Dartmoor' map.” Information from the Dartmoor Website 😃
