Hello, my great, great grandfather would have been approx 19 when these photos were taken- he was Henry Featherstone, one of 12 children of the farm foreman that lived in a house on Stow Gate, Deeping St Nicholas in 1891 census. Presumably Myra Featherstone is a descendant from that family too?
Great old pictures. My great grandfather was the signal man and quadring. I have some pictures of him on the steps to the signal box and his GN & GE whistle
Thanks for memory
