Thank you Gerry and Stan - my interest is with Edward Vivian Smith - Chief Supt. Sunderland Force. I would like to find his years of service. I do know that he retired and had a pub named The Ships Inn in Penshaw.(Possibly the 1950's) And I believe his son, Ted Smith, was Fire Chief. I have some super photos but no one wrote on the back to say who was who - which I find is a trait that runs in most families. Although the one with Raich Carter (another connection) can be clearly read - they must have been proud of that one. Best regards - Judy
