Another  interesting  photograph  from the extensive   albums  of  late Marjorie Congreve, the most bombed out Australian nurse of  WWll  during the Britain  Blitz. Note by Congreve  highlights " glorious bridesmaids". One at back  identified as   Audrey Congreve , Christopher's only daughter ;  another , "in front, " Marigold , second daughter  of Geoffrey Congreve's.  No mention of  (pressed) flower girl up against  page boys , her feather tickling one . Photograph printed by a  Kensington  studio .  Other  photos from the albums, which cover a period from the l920s  in Australia  and wartime in England   to  the  l970s  back  in Australia ,  now in  the Little Darwin  Collection , will  be  run  in  the  future .
