AddBy: Jo Wynne5th Feb 2021 7:18AMI am fairly certain that my gt grandfather William Hindmarsh (Waratah) is sitting in the front row, 4th from the right - white hair and beard. He died 1919, aged 84 and was active in the Masons in Reefton and before that in Greymouth he is often mentioned in articles about Mason activities his many talents including music and art. He was well known for his script. the 10 commandments and the lettering over the transept in St. Stephen's church are his work. He did many illuminated addresses including one for John Bevan who was high up in the Masons on the Coast. A full description of this Lodge in Shiel St. when it was first opened was written by him and can be found in the Inangahua Times 14th July 1892.
I wonder what your gt. grandfather's name was Rowan, and where he is in the photo? I would love to know who some of the other people are.
