Hello everyone Came across a school photo of my grandad aged 14. He was in Division 1 of Duncan Consolidated, and had all the rest of his classmates sign their names and some of their birthdates on the back. If anyone wants a copy, give me until early December and I can scan it to you. I haven't a scanner and need to use the one at school, but would like to make myself a copy first so the original can stay at home. Here are the names, in no particular order (sorry!) H E BLANCHARD - possibly the teacher, has the nicest writing out of all of them and no first name is given. Lorry?? STAPLE(S?), March 31st Alan STANHOPE Martin MINSTIAO? John JENKINSON Doris DRIVER, May 25th Tomea TAYOTA (I think, some of the handwriting is hard to read) Ada ESSERY Joan WILLIS May 23rd R CORNEY - My Grandad Marygold NASH Nellie DODS Mae BLOW Audrey SQUIBB James PARADIS Elun PATCHETT, Oct. 18th James LE QUESNE Beryl SMITH Nettie GRIEVE Fusugh FUYINAGA Jack WRIGHT Eric WILLIS John COUPLAND Barry CHASTER Ralph GILBERT Gregor MACKENZIE R GRUNBACK?, Nov. 21 John HALLOWAY, Oct. 23/20 Iris BIRCHALL August 22nd Clive HOSKINS Gwenyth HOMEWOOD December 21 Janet BUCKHAM I think three students "forgot" to sign their names. If you think your Mum/Dad/grandparents/yourself was in Division 1 of Duncan Consolidated and wasn't listed, let me know and I will send you a copy. Hope that helps someone out there!

Taryn I see there are a couple of Japanese in the photo consider sending a copy as a donation to the Japanese Canadian National Museum & Archives Society, 511 East Bradway, Vancouver, When the Japanese were moved during WWII many pictures were left behind so this may be the only opportunity for the ancestors of those folks to see a picture of their ancestor.
