Three from the Keating family,our neighbors for many years, not sure if she also is a Keating. Vera McDonald was a regular visitor there,related somehow,was Ian and Gavin McDonald’s mother. They were a lovely family and very good neighbors.

Thinking about it,I think they were all sisters,it’s such a long time ago,sixty years or more. They lived in Fox street in Cobden,and next door to the Skelton family
