Inherited family characteristics: my paternal GF played the cornet in the East Yorks regimental band...it skipped a generation (prob due to lack of money to purchase an instrument), then one of my half brothers played the trumpet, one of my daughters also played the trumpet and t'other daughter played the trombone.

I do a crossword puzzle, wordsearch and suduko every day and adore doing jigsaws...!!!

Here is an image of St John's School when it first opened as a National School in about 1845.

Hi Suzanne. Is your dad, George, elder brother to Sylvester?

Ancestry does have a section of Somerset, England, School Registers  which include St John's Boys' School 1905-1914 and St John's Girls' School 1878-1892.  They can be accessed by using the Card Catalogue and just entering Somerset in the first box. These will not help for pupils who were there in 1929 but all records can be found at the Somerset Archives.

This photo also show St John's pupils from about the same period.  It is from 1929 and contains an Arthur FOX - front row third from the left.  With thanks to Farrell Fox!

Thank  you Bill, nay thanks for the photos
