The Spencer Children

This Cabinet image is by Maybury, Independent Buildings, 21 Fargate, Sheffield. On the plain back of the image in pencil is “13764 Spencer C” and then in ink:

“Left to right cousins

Cissy Spencer

Norman Spencer

Joseph Spencer

Charlotte Spencer”

In 1901 and 1911 the Spencer family home was at 149 Walkley Lane, Sheffield. The children pictured in the image in the early 1900s are probably:

Left to right –

Dorothy Mabel (“Cissy”) Spencer born about 1896.

Norman Stanley Spencer (1901-1975)

Arthur Joseph (“Joe”) Spencer born about 1892

Charlotte Amelia Spencer born about 1898

All of these children were born in Sheffield apart from Joe who was born in Winster, Derbyshire.
