!920s:
Alice Booth had seven children - the first born in 1922 and the last in 1936. I have a small collection of photos including a professional post card showing 6 of the children posing with a stuffed lion in a studio in Ramsgate in 1932. My mother's name before her marriage in 1926 was Sparrow . Subsequently she became Vic (Victoria) Nettleton. Her nickname was Birdy.

I am not even sure if Booth was Alice's maiden name or her married name.

If you could kindly supply any background information
or updates on the family, I should be very grateful.

Have you tried a search on this site to see if anyone else is looking for the family, if the family lived in Ramsgate, the local paper may be willing to put an article in, asking if anyone knows of the family.
Good luck,
Liz

Good luck.
