A ‘work in progress’ family history website starting from an Archer family of South Oxford, who were freemen, brewers, haulage contractors, and first ‘Archer & Co’ then ‘Archer Cowley & Co’ furniture removers in the 19th and 20th Centuries, inter alia, to whom are linked by marriage the Penfolds and Wells of Southwark and Surrey, the Reeds of Devon, the Gilders of Oxford and Hinckley, the Morgans of Petworth, Sussex, the Garners of Middleton, Lancs and many others. There are connections via Phil and the present generation (born 1930s/40s) with a patent law firm known as "UD&L" with motor-racing and Scottish antecedents.
A small-scale wedding, as befitted the time, in the midst of a terrible war. No official photographs, I assume, or at least, I have never seen any, and this is an amateur snapshot by a family member. I see that WGRA’s son Fred and daughter Nora were among the witnesses, together with the bride’s sister Ann, and her mother, also Ann, who is perhaps the other lady in the wedding group photo here.
