Hebburn ex pat Gerry Roberts in Colorado sent me that same photo for my Archive from their Roberts family album.
His dad is 2nd from left in the front row & his Grandad is in 2nd row from front in the Bowler Hat as he was a 'gaffer'.
My mother knew Gerry's dad and told me how he'd entertain people as they waited for the Bus on the 'High Rd' by singing to them.
