If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Not a memory butI have salvaged (in Sussex) an old photo of : "21st birthday of Ginnie Graham (Mrs Myers) August 19th 1903" Also written on the back is "Mrs Graham Kirby Thore" 28 members of the family, including lots of little boys, in front of a substantial white house. I would love to reunite the photo with their descendents. Chris Slater
My mother, Joyce Hogg, whose grandparents were Egglestone of Culgaith, used to tell us that her relatives, two aunts, used to run the Bridge Inn at Kirkby Thore in the 30's, 40's or 50's. Unfortunately I do not know their names or surnames. Can anyone help me with my family history? Other family names are Tallentyre and Jennings, so this may be useful to anyone with possible information. Thank you.
