This photo was taken of the wedding party for the wedding of Lionel Edward Perrott and Ethel Margaret Fewings on Wednesday 5th June 1912. The photo was taken on the tennis court at the rear of the bride's father's home - Ferndale, opposite St James Church, Bream, Gloucestershire. Below is the wedding report from the Gloucester Journal 0f 8 June 1912.

David Wilcox added: "... In the guest list for the Bream wedding, Mr and Mrs SB Jenkins appear. These could well be my great-grandparents, Simms Banks Jenkins. My grandfather, Lionel Simms Banks Jenkins, appears on an very early roll for Lydney school. He married Edith Mary Coldrick (of Bream?). My mother, Dorothy Ida Jenkins, was born in Bream in 1916. Latterly, the family lived in Paisley House in the area before moving to Dolgelley in the early 1920s".
