Whanganui woman Carol Webb would love to hear from anyone who knows about The Talbot Street Band, featured in this 1920s photo.
They are all Kendrick family women and the photo would probably have been taken at the Talbot Street home of "Granny" (Ellen) Kendrick, middle row centre with drum sticks, and her daughter-in-law, Winnie Kendrick, on squeeze box to her right.
Others names are Eileen, May and Beat Kendrick plus Ada Gibbs, Nellie Dennison, Ivy Tattersall, Ethel Poynter and Emily Ross.
Anyone with any information - especially whether the band played for dances etc - or who would like a digital copy, should email carol.webbwords@gmail.com
