Summary

Group of people, mostly women and children, on the verandah of 'Summerlea', Coral Street, Victor Harbor. The house was owned by Mrs Ruby E. Stock (a widow) who lived there with her four children - Bessie, Bob, Ken and Gerald. It is believed that Mrs Stock is the lady seated on the right, with glasses, and that her three sons are in the foreground closest to the camera, one holding one of her (locally) famous dogs - she collected money for the Red Cross during World War 2 by tying collecting tins to the dogs. The woman 5th from left, not looking at the camera, is Miss Dorothy Graham (1889-1975) who worked at 'Summerlea' as the housekeeper for over 30 years; the woman to her right (4th from left) is possibly her co-worker Hilda Stevens.
