Florence Harvey her brothers sisters friends circ
Thought to date from 1910. Florence Harvey and siblings.
The photo includes Florence on extreme right in a straw boater, next to her is Maude the youngest sister, then an unknown girl probably a friend, then Mabel at extreme left.
The woman seated at the front is we think Marie Louise, the eldest of the six Harvey siblings....with her husband, name unknown but surname Jones.
The two men at either end are on the right ... Stuart Champion-Jones, the man Florence later married.
The man on the left is Frederick Charles Harvey, brother.
The younger man seated at the front is Courtenay Harvey the youngest of the harvey children.
There is just just eight years difference between the oldest and the youngest of the six Harvey children.
Seeking descendents of Florence to tell the story of Frederic Harvey from Bristol and his family, their ancestors.

Hello there, as far as I know (thus far) Florence made no mention of a C.B.Thomas in her photo albums and narrative. She was happily married to Stuart Champion Jones until his death and they lived in Sri Lanka returning to England for visits to family, although I believe she held a torch for Aster, her sister Mabel's husband.
In 1939 Florence would have called herself Florence Champion Jones. I would think that your Florence Harvey is probably not my Florence. I still have a vast amount of research to do on my Harveys of Bristol and still hope to find the descendents. Is C.B.Thomas a relative of yours? What is the watch brand? If it's say a Rolex, you might be able to track down where it was sold by the serial number on the watch case. And if you could track it to a shop location the original sale records might still exist, with name and adress. A long shot I know.
I'm grateful for your message, thanks. It would've been great if we could have matched the Florences'

I am now able to give Mr Jones his given name. He is Walter Frederick Leslie Jones, and he married Marie Louise Harvey in 1901. He was a stationer and printer in Norwood and later Beckenham. He was the brother of Stuart Champion Jones also in the photo far right.

The mystery,history and Archive of the Harveys of Bristol, a wealthy Victorian family 1866 to 1937.
The mystery is how this original personal family archive belonging to Florence Harvey came to be found in my deceased mother's house in Essex ten years ago.
Florence was living in Sri Lanka in the 1930's so how did it arrive in England and why did my mother have it?
My great aunt may have brought it back to England but why was it not returned to the Harvey family?
Does this Victorian family not have descendents to whom it could have been returned?
Why do the documents,archives and photos cease about 1937 when Florence Harvey's mother died?
The Harvey family have no connection to my own family.
It is our intention to return the Harvey family archive to Florence's descendents if they can be found.
Read their story on my eBay blog jeannchris and see their images here through time from 1866 to 1937.
