now living in Calgary, Alberta, Canada for sending me the photograph of the school class above and for providing all the names below.  There are 49 children in this class photo!

Ken writes:

"Here is a class photo from Balgreen school, taken in either 1936 or 1937.

95% came from  streets in Whitson with the remainder from Stevenson Drive, Baird Avenue or Stevenson Road.

With the help of a couple of classmates, and strictly from memory, we are pretty sure we have identified everyone correctly.  Believe it or not, our memories are still sharp!!"
