Comment The boy was Willie Dunwell who was adopted by the Houlden family. Kathleen (Kay) Houlden is on the left, Nora Houlden on the right.

The girls were born three years apart in Rawdon – Kathleen in 1904 and Nora 1907. Both were baptised at St. Peter’s, were married there and both married a man named Smith (Arthur and Newell respectively). Their father Tom was a Rawdon man born and bred as were his ancestors back to the 1700’s. He is buried in St. Peter’s churchyard.
