Note from Evelyn Radley (nee GRIFFIN) 

"... you have 3 question marks, 
the young man on the far right is a Hodgkinson from Stocksbridge, they were
a large family.
Their youngest boy was killed in the bus crash of
Bolsterstone Choir in the 1940's.
The one in your photo is the next one up, we all used to go
dancing at the Victory club together, 
I know the faces of the others but after
all this years being away I cannot put names to them. Sorry!"

Date and place please :-)
