3		Tom Sitting This is the second picture in the album, next to that of Leah. The chap sitting is granddad Tom Ellis but who is the one standing? We feel confident it is his brother-in-law, Horace Edgar Bradley, but it would be nice to know for sure. Horace married Clara Elizabeth Ellis, otherwise known as Dolly. Confusing, as Leah was also known as Dolly!	Horace Edgar Bradley Thomas Ellis
4		Tom Standing The chap standing is granddad, Tom Ellis, but who is the one sitting? Possibly one of Tom's brothers? Or a friend?	Thomas Ellis
5		Leah's Mum I have this down as Leah's mother, Eliza Farley, but it could also be Tom's mother, Sarah Ann Hall. There is mention of the surname Hall on some of the postcards in the album. May & Co., Artists, 279 Wheeler St., Lozells.	Eliza Farley Sarah Ann Hall
