Mystery fireman’s funeral

Has anyone any idea whose funeral this is, Terry and I reckon it’s about 1910, from the bottom up I’m pretty sure this is St Augustine’s abbey suggesting he was a catholic, we reckon the cortège is looking up Hereson Road from the traffic lights, suggesting they are on the way to Ramsgate cemetery, next one up I am assuming is the fireman that died and the top one probably at Ramsgate cemetery.

Many thanks to David for letting me scan them.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
