Hi Pete,
The pic here was taken perhaps 60 years ago. From left is Masie Quieros, my dads sisters Elsie (James), Ivy (Hourigan) Elsie's daughters Dorothy and in foreground Noreen (Vincent). Her son Maurice, in his 80's left is perhaps the only one living and the little girl, in the shadows left, must be Maurice's daughter Natice also in the UK. In the centre, the blonde boy, is someone I don't recognise.
Masie was considered my grandmother's adopted daughter, since she lived from time to time with the Shepherd family. Masie was married to a Holmes who treated her very shabbily and the marriage ended early. Maise had a brother in the pre-partition police and his name might have been Alfred. Masie died in New Delhi in the mid-1960's. I guess you wouldn't know where she fits into you family.
I'm sending this to my blog as well hoping that Maurice in the UK sees the pic and clears the questions in my mind.
George
