I'm seeking anyone related to this family & also anyone who might have a photograph of the crew of the coxless fours mentioned in my great-grandfather's obituary. One of my brothers now has my great-grandfather's & grandfather's rowing medals, but we have no original photos. I would like to pay for copies if someone has photos, please.
