1953 – Windows for the Queen

1953 - Windows for the Queen

In this photo the shop windows are decorated to celebrate the coronation of Elizabeth II in June, 1953. Mr. Roberts and John are sitting on the steps. Barbara McBurney tells us: ”The man walking into the picture from the left is my Great Uncle Edward Boyes, he was my father (John Jefferson’s) Uncle, brother to my Grandmother Elizabeth Ann Jefferson nee Boyes, he lived at 16 High Row and had a hen run at the top of Mill Bank, he visited our house regularly when I was young and passed away September 1966.”
