Some members of
the Francombe family including (standing from the left) Gladys
and Thomas Francombe, William and Maud Francombe and Cliff Francombe.
Kneeling in the front are Kenneth Francombe and Stanley Maurice
White.
Maud Francombe (nee
White) has a fascinating story. She was a founder of the Women's
Police Service and her beat was in Trafalga Square and it was
in London that she met Will Francombe, also a policeman and
later married him. (Thanks to Diane Groves for this information).
