APRIL 2025
FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHS
The Herald was recently contacted by Harry and Yavette who have a large collection of black and white family photos.
The photos came from uncle Jack Payne who lived off Narborough Road, he was a friend of Harry who, after Jack’s passing, now has the photos. He contacted the Herald because he thinks Jacks sister Margaret Gunn (nee Payne) who is about 76 - 79 years old might live in the Countesthorpe area. Harry and Yavette are keen to hear from any member of the family with a view to passing on the photos. If you recognise anyone in the photos published here or know Margaret or her family please get in touch with the Herald team and we can pass on your details to Harry and Yavette. Our contact details on page two.
