Hello Billy,
You did well to still have the photo .mine went years ago.The Ferdinands in Cowper Ave were my Dads uncle and his family.I live in E Sussex are you still in Essex?
Hello, Brenda Ferdinand and 63 years have passed. How smug of me to think I could remember all the names. I defer to your greater knowledge and know you are correct. You may not realise but the Ferdinand family in Cowper Avenue were related to me. Nice to know somebody read my submission. Keep reading this website and I look forward to reading something from you about Tilbury in better times.
I think it was Pat Carter not Sheila Carter.She was in my class in 4a and then Grays Tech.K1 B Taylor (nee Ferdinand )
