I received this interesting photograph from Lesley Hayward in Herefordshire, England. Thanks for sharing Lesley! Click on the image to enlarge it.
This is a photo of Nellie Hilda Self [far left] and next to her Joseph William Yates Fish in a show together before their wedding in 1903. They were members of the Ilford [UK] Amateur Operatic Society and performed many times together in Gilbert and Sullivan Operetta’s. It is where they met.Â
Nellie was the grand-daughter of James Meadows Sr., the artist. Several of her uncles also became well-known artists–James Edward M., Edwin Louis M., and Arthur Joseph M. She is the daughter of their sister Frances Ameleia Self [née Meadows].

I hope you will include this interesting photo in the Journal.
