Muriel’s granddaughter comments in 2013: “Yes this is my grandmother Muriel. It is so neat to see this photo. I haven’t seen many pictures of her earlier than the 1960s. The house behind them has the same gingerbread trim on the verandah that is in other pictures that I have of the farm house. I remember the flower garden from when I was a teenager in the 1970s. If she grew the same type of flowers back in 1946, there should have been hollyhock, foxglove, pinks. I wish I could remember more of the flowers. I’ll have to ask my Dad if he recognizes the stove that is on the verandah.”

RESEARCH NOTES
- From another researcher: My mom knew Ralph Compton (He might have been called Edmund.) and his son Alfred (Ned). [who] they lived 2 fields away. [Her son Bob Butt] met Ian briefly about 10 or 11 years ago and he pointed out the location of where [his] great grandfather, George Compton, had his farm - pretty certain it was on Compton Rd. [Bob’s] grandfather took over the farm upon the sudden death of his father, George Compton, in 1903.
They had the following children:
