Ross Annie Bolton 8c 351
Ross Lily Bolton 8c 351

The twins Mary and Jane Ross in Bolton most certainly are now in the lead and will take some beating.

Jan,

I am surprised that his father could concentrate sufficiently to fill out the form so promptly. Good on yer Mr George Henry Howard, top marks for efficiency.

Mind you not much else to do in Brearley Street at that time of night. ;-)

P.S. you could be right about Arthur being 4 months old. :-(

I think Arthur was 5 months - drat! But look at this one, wow:

Has anyone found anyone younger?
