Brian Sue Mckenzie: Don't think it was Athol McKenzie as he was a carpenter. I think the guy on the far right is Noel McKenzie my dad.

Sophie Lochrie: Brian Sue Mckenzie when I first saw this photo before you had even commented on it I thought it looked like him! Think someone got the brothers mixed up?

Brian Sue Mckenzie: Sophie Lochrie yep.. I agree .

Barry Butcher The person next to Don Banks bears a strong resemblance to Dudley Dobson.
yron Caldwell Barry Butcher. . Was that the Don Banks who would have been in my classes? If so, I ran into him around 1973 in Auckland at Reidrubber, where he was a "time and motion person" but based in ChCh. He looks too tidy to have been down the mine there, and didn't he work in a bank first.

Barry Butcher Myron Don was the manager of Burke’s

Myron Caldwell Thanks Barry.
