Meeting Of Yorkshire Councillors

[Guest JSP]

Here's something that may be of interest. I found this in our collection of family history! I've scanned this from a newspaper dated 1925 but the picture was taken much earlier. I have estimated it's date to be around 1850/60? Interestingly, one of the people pictured is William Fisher, an anscestor of mine on my Grandad's side, and also a T. Thorpe which is also an ancestor of mine but on my Grandma's side! Just a little quirk!

Just thought this may be of use or interest to someone out there!

Thanks,

JP

Hello, John Francis Moss is an ancestor of mine and he wasn't appointed to the Education Board until 1870 if that helps?   Great photo, thank you!
