Tom and Rose Curson celebrate their golden wedding anniversary with three other family members (? 1976), and a separate note of Mr Curson’s death at some later time.
(Seated, l–r): Rose and Tom Curson of Stanhoe.
(Standing, l–r): Adeline (second name unknown, a member of the family); Tom’s brother Ernest Curson; and Ernest’s wife Ethel.
Many thanks to Diane Reeve, granddaughter of Ernest Curson, for the names. As a child, Diane was fascinated by her great-uncle Tom. “He was a very kind and humble man,” she says.
He would never tell her how his leg came to be badly injured in the first world war, but he was awarded the Military Medal. “He was unable to bend his leg and managed to hobble with a stick,” Diane says.
