The Crown Hawthorns Drybrook, Skittles and Cribbage club 1928-29

My name is Ann Marshall and I live near Stroud in Gloucestershire. I find your
website very interesting and informative, when I show it to my father-in-law he
enjoys identifying people and places from his past.

I thought you might find this photo of interest and possibly use it on your web
site. It was given to me by my father-in-law Herbert (Bert) Marshall, who's
father is on the photo as H Marshall (Herbert), he's the one with the dickey bow
tie.

F (Fred) Young on the photo was Bert's uncle (His mums brother) and O Marshall
(sec) Oliver was his dads brother. Some of the men on the photo did not have
ties to wear so they were drawn on by the photographer afterwards.

As a matter of interest, Bert (my father-in-law) was the last landlord of the
Crown (Hawthorns) when it closed in the 1970's.
