Stephen Fell


Taken in May 2012, this is four generations of the Fell family. My father, sitting, was from a family of six, four brothers and two sisters. The other three brothers only had daughters so I was the only male Fell to continue the family name. Fortunately I had a son and this was the day that Great Grandad Fell got to hold his Great Grandson, George, for the first time.

My paternal Grandfather, William Arthur Wheeler, his wife Lillian Cosier and their first born Lillian May Wheeler. Appears to be a studio portrait but there are no names on the print itself. Lillian bore 11 children between 1911 and 1931, sadly she then died in 1933 from breast cancer and secondary liver cancer. My father believed that his mother was 'disowned' as she had married out of their Jewish faith. However, I can find no record of a Jewish connection and believe it was more likely she was 'disowned' for being pregnant before she was married. From Census records I note she was living with her brother shortly before she got married.

Alejandro Olazo Millám


I didn't have many photos of my paternal grandparents, whom I couldn't meet because they died in 1969, but one day talking to one of my aunts, she showed me a photo album that I didn't know existed. In this album I found this image. I think it is one of the most beautiful portraits of my paternal family.


From the left we can see in the photo my grandmother Adelaida Rivera Pérez carrying my uncle Gustavo. Then we see my aunts Hayde and María Elena together with my father Roberto. And finally my grandfather Guillermo Olazo Villena appears.
1966, This portrait was taken in the house where my grandfather worked as a gardener in the Chosica district of Lima, Peru
