Smith 50th Wedding Anniversary

John Joseph Smith and Mary Ann Thompson were married 27th August 1899.
After 50 years of marriage, in 1949 a party was held to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.

The big picture below shows all the family and friends that attended.
My mother (Stella Maud Calkin ... nee Butler) who showed me the picture has done her best to identify all the attendees and we have labelled up the picture and listed who we think the guests were - to the best of Stella's memory.
If you can positively identify any person in the picture that we are unsure of, that would be nice. Just contact the Calkin family webmaster: Graham Calkin
