The gentleman on the left is Thomas Richardson (my great-grandfather) alongside is his son Major Eric Richardson (my grandfather). My grandfather was killed whilst on active service during WWII. I would love to hear any "stories" that Coral Dranfield has about my family and hers at the time this photograph was taken. Thomas was a 'Yarn' agent, by the time this photograph was taken he was a cotton farm agent, Eric helped in the family business.
