    There's a mention of "Miss Jean Potter and Miss Charlotte Potter" being "on the beach" at Southampton in summer 1922 (apparently visiting for the festivities surrounding a tennis tournament): chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1922-07-07/ed-... "Jean and Charlotte Potter" took part in a 1922 circus-themed fair at Agawam Park, to benefit Southampton Hospital (they helped run the roasted peanuts and popcorn concession). query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F00D16FF385D1A7A9... The two Potter girls are also listed among the young women selling programs for a performance at the Parrish Art Museum in Southampton that year (New York Tribune, 3 September 1922). I think they're the daughters of banker William Chapman Potter and Caroline Morton Potter, who were divorcing in 1922 (which might account for the girls' busy social calendar that year). Reports about the divorce mention they have two daughters, 17 and 19. Mrs. Potter was residing in Paris at the time. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F30A15FB355A1B7A9... They had a half-sister, Diana Guggenheim (1924-1991), aka Diane Hamilton: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_Hamilton Jean Potter married artist Frederick Soldwedel; they divorced in 1930. Then she married Lt. Edmund C. Stout; she was widowed in 1943 when he died from an accidental gunshot wound in their home in Florida. Charlotte Potter married Reginald M. Lewis in 1926, and divorced him in 1930; then she married a man named Atwood, as his second wife, c1932.

    I'd hazard 1940s from the fashion, and the cool dude up the back with a zipper jacket.

    Same location Bride was also from Ballyhale, Co. Kilkenny, so where’s the backdrop? Morton could be grooms name, possibly

    The very next shot in the Poole catalogue is the one below from 1952, Which would explain why I don't see today's in the online marriage records
    An Irish wedding in Ireland, what else would you expect?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Paging back in the catalogue, the first dated one I find is also 1952:
    A handsome pair of Cats – The Murphys on their wedding day

    The later-in-the-catalogue one is Sept 1952, the before one unknown 1952.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I don't have newspaper access, but Tuesday September 23, 1952 WEDDING BELLS in the Irish Independent might be interesting Hmm, maybe not. At least one Morton mentioned, but looks like a Connor/St. John wedding.

    Getting ready for the Great Teddy Bear Run? ... On second thoughts, I don't think he'll want to be donating that particular teddy!

    " The first Norton logo was a fairly simple, art nouveau design, with the name spelled in capitals.[as here] However, a new logo appeared on the front of the catalogue for 1914, which was a joint effort by James Lansdowne Norton and his daughter Ethel. It became known as the "curly N" logo, with only the initial letter as a capital, and was used by the company thereafter, first appearing on actual motorcycles in 1915. "

    Implying the Norton is pre-1915 ?
