Received a charming wedding photo circa 1930; location is believed to be next to the Radcliffe Arms, Radcliffe. Contains members of the King and Wood families.

Possibly more people to be identified.

Is this a King/Wood marriage do you know, Coquet?

The only GRO ref I could find was a wedding in Newcastle of a Sarah King to John Wood in 1933.

Not sure if it's a marriage between those two families - hopefully will have more info shortly.

Hi,
The photo is one from my wife's family who were one of the King family from Radcliffe. I hope to have the identity of some of those present soon.
I believe of the 3 lads on the front left, the first on the left is Tom Keen ( his father Harold and mother Elizabeth (nee King ) are on the photo but not sure where at the moment ) then the next 2 lads are two of the King brothers, I believe Frank and Raymond. Not certain which but will check. The other brother is George who is standing second from the left at the back. The photo is marked with pen indicating Mum and Dad. Mum is Harriet King ( nee Craiggs ) (1888-1980) while Dad wearing the bowler, is Jack ( John ) King (1892-1975).

I hope to have a few more clues soon.

Best wishes
