If anyone has a relative associated with the Fauconberg Grammar School in Beccles, Suffolk in the 1860s, leave me a message. I have a photograph of about 80 students and adults gathered on the occasion of a cricket match. It was taken somewhere between 1860 and 1870, since it shows Alfred Octavius Hartley, who was headmaster between 1853 and 1870, and his second wife Ann Jefferson (my great great grandfather's sister), whom he married in June 1860. Perhaps you'll spot someone you know.
