First of a set of four pics bought at a car boot this morning. This one is dated by the chalk board held up at the front. The other three have dates written on their backs. All have 'T. Bilsborough, 1 Elm Street, Wellingborough, N'hants'written on their backs.
A Bilsborough family lived in the Red Rock Railway Cottages - perhaps they originated from Wellingborough.

Rev. Long - there is a Thomas W Bilsborough shown as being born in the Wigan district in October 1915.
A Thomas W Bilsborough born 28th October 1915 can be found in the 1939 register, working as a railway porter in Wellingborough.
A Thomas William Bilsborough born 28th October 1915 died in Wellingborough in the March quarter of 1979.
Could be the chap in question.He would be of an age to be on the school photos, and may have had to move to Wellingborough to find work.
