Picnic With The Relatives
John B. Capewell came from a large familiy so I have a number of glass negatives in the Capewell Collection with a number of what I’m guessing are cousins, aunts, uncles and such.

Capewell and The Lads Among The Rocks
The lads from last week’s photo are back, but it looks as if John B. Capewell has taken his place behind the camera for this shot.
