Theme: Family History/Genealogy - DO YOU KNOW THESE MEN PLEASE?

Good Afternoon,
I recently met up with a lady named Joy who is looking to find out:
• The names of the people in the photo?
• The cricket team name?
• When and where this photo was taken?

If anyone has any of the above information, it would be very much appreciated. Thank you

She originally had an article in the Stirling Times (as seen in picture two) asking the same questions but had no luck unfortunately.

It is believed to be the Helena Vale, Smith's Mill or Guildford Cricket Team and taken around 1900.

Joy believes her grandfather, William Henry Nichols and her uncle Charles Nichols are in the photo but does not know who the other people are.

It would be great to find out some information about this photo and any information would be very much appreciated. Thanks and Have a good rest of your day!

A nice original WAGR Clock I saw yesterday at the Guildford Tourist Information Centre in the WA History exhibition they have at the moment. The exhibition features many great WA and Guildford items from the Swan Guildford Historical Society Inc - SGHS Collection.
