Goto AITKEN to WHAITE

Adrian & Phil.
I've also attached 2 photos of the Beecroft Whaites (Trudy, Phil. Adrian (15) and Derrick (19)).

Adrian Derrick & Trudy
Coogee 29-10-28 Tom or Dad
I was looking specifically for Uncle Tom. I thought the one at Coogee beach could have been him but the date of 1928 perhaps suggests it's my Dad. What do you think? The photo of Grandma Whaite (Mum wrote on back that it was around 1948) is I think in Maitland. The photo of Mum, Me, Jenny and my Grandmas was taken at Mosman in 1947.

Dad & Cousin Pam (Pamela Mary Davies) -1926
Dad middle & baby Cousin Pam-1926
The other two where obviously taken at the same time one has 1926 on back and indicates it is my Dad and Cousin Pam. So on the other one - cousin Pam at bottom, my Dad third from the top. Do you recognise or know the others?

Could the top be Harry? Who is the girl? The bottom 2 boys is one of them Tom?

Harry Dad & Cousin Bob (Robert Henry Davies)-1919
The one with the toy car has my Mum's writing on the back indicating it is Harry, Dick & Cousin Bob .

Mum Phil, Jennifer, Grandma Aitken & Whaite-1947
Nana Whaite-1948
Papa Whaite-1945
new photos and notes below from phil feb 2001.


drawing by our Richard in late 1990.

1. Three cubs, I think the middle one is my Dad. I thought the one on right might have been Tom, but on closer inspection I guess they are only other cubs from the pack! I believe this is taken in Melbourne probably near Jollymont (spelling) ie around where the MCG is now. Am I on the right track?
3. 3 brother Richard, baby & others This is an interesting one! My brother Richard, nursing, I think, Cousin Jenny and I perhaps Olive at left. Am I right? Who are the others? Is this at Elizabeth Bay, it looks familiar? Date would likely be late 1945 if I am right.
4. Mum and Dad at Roseville & dated 21 January 1936. Who is the other girl & who took photo?
5 Dad, Mum Wedding Oct37. This is the only picture I have of Mum & Dads wedding day. No group photos I'm sorry to say.
6 Aitkens Bond St 25 Dec 23. Aitken family- I included this one of 37 Bond St., Mosman as it would have been taken within 12 months of them moving there from Manly. I must say the house to my mind looked much nicer then. It had character. Somehow the alterations done over time made it look very ordinary! Nice family picture, but zooming in lacks detail. I have a number of good pictures of the Aitkens from this time right through to the 1950's if you are interested.
7. A great photo.Jennifer's baptism. [recorded date 19 AUG 1945] No Olive or Harry. Harry probably took photograph.
