To the left of her, her eldest son William, next Samuel, then Charles: to the right, her eldest daughter Lizzie, then Maggie. (Both Thompsons - Lizzie married the father, Maggie married his son.) Their respective wives and husbands are directly behind them. The older members of their families are in the back row with wives and husbands, cousins, brothers and sisters. The children in the front row are, from the left: Paul Thompson, Sam Efford, Sam Efford (Ted), Gladys Efford, Ivy Efford.
