Photos
1.The photo of Kate Touchell (nee Walker) was taken by
"Thos O' Byrne Palace Studio, Pritchard & Rissik Sts.,
Johannesburg".
2.The note on the back of the photo of the 5 Touchell children
states they are in South Africa but later photo showing the
6th child (only 4 in photograph) is on a cardboard mount named
"Rundle Studio 62 Rundle Street, Adelaide".
3.The second group photo of the Touchell children shows only 4
of the 6 - I believe these are: L to R Olive Victoria, Hilary
Harcourt, Claude Saint Clare & Gordon Gladstone.

This is the first time I have seen Catherine Walker recorded
as "Katherine". In the family register William Walker records
her name as Catherine. CW May 2007
