    This photograph may have been taken around mid 1916. An enlargement indicates that Irene Kendall (front row), is holding a photograph of a sailor. Although the person in the photograph cannot be identified, it could be Nicholas Percy Kendall. Nicholas was lost at sea on 31 May 1916 when his ship, HMS Indefatigable, was sunk during the Battle of Jutland. Nicholas and Irene were 2nd cousins and Irene looks to be about the right age.
