We were very sad to hear of Catherine (Eva) Hurton’s death. At
the funeral her grandson Nicolas told us how dearly her family had loved their
“honest-to-goodness down to earth Mum and Granny.” The reception afterwards was full of
memories, and Eva’s daughter Marlene kindly lent us this photo, taken at the
Catholic Club in Ashley Lane, but we’re not sure when. We think that’s Eva on the extreme left
with Violet Bennett (later Loader) and Diana Walsh next to her. There’s Eileen Finn with the short open
jacket, while the three men in the centre are Fr Bernard Heeran, Joseph Walsh
and Colonel Weld. Do you think
we’ve got it right so far, and can you help us with the other people in the
group? Please click on “comments”
