The two children appear to be my late father Dennis and his sister Joy(ce) - so Simon would be their grandfather. Dennis appears to be no older than six in this photo, so the date of the photo would be around 1941. I think my grandparents (Samuel and Dolly) and family escaped from London for much of the war period and lived in or around Princes Risborough in Buckinghamshire. My mother Brenda had an impression of Dad's grandparental generation as having adopted a perhaps smart English style of clothing (as in the picture), English manners etc. My cousin Philip Markham (Joy's son), discovered this lovely picture when sorting through Joy's apartment recently. Any discussion or validation of this (and the picture) would be welcome - and more about Simon and his back story?
