Thanks for the detective work. I don’t believe there are any direct connections but I did suspect it wasn’t Bedlington. There are quite a few letters with these photos so I’ll see if I can find any other links to America.

@threegee?

My info in the other photo is second hand from threegee based on his comments here. we're in a loop.

I think this might be a holiday photo and not Bedlington. Posted in case anybody knows otherwise.

They do seem smaller in person now than old photos. This will be early 50s. There’s a similar point of view from 1977 here…

Only in physical form at the moment and being scanned and added here as I get time.

I’m in a similar position unfortunately. Lots of photos not yet shared and unable to put names to faces. I’ve been picking out the ones of general interest. There’s also a lot of old sales literature and adverts from the shops still to scan. Which history group? I’ve occasionally browsed through some of the online groups but haven’t had any direct involvement. if there’s an open in-person group I’m not aware of I can definitely bring some things along and attempt to swap notes. Most of my info is second hand. My dad also has lots of info in his head that he has been adding to these images.
