	Have a look at this house that was for sale. I don't know whether I am just imagining it but I think it could be the same building that the truck is parked in front of in your photo (though obviously done up now):- http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-41227111.html Kath. x

	I've asked my son to have a look at the photo and he thinks it may say North Woods Game Farm. Kath. x

Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 28 Send Message	That's great! Sorry about the incorrect location for Dacre. Harrogate sounds right! I think that must have been a holiday location and good friends but probably not members of my family. Perhaps the Sharman family will be interested in the photos. Many thanks Rose and Kate!

	I think the farm name might be Cave Farm. Kath. x

	Well done Rose. Now you've posted that I can see that the side of the truck definitely looks as if it says North Woods above a farm name. Kath. x

	There's an entry in Kelly's directory for 1927 Richard Sharman, North Woods, Dacre Harrogate ?

Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 28 Send Message	I'm sorry I can't read all the wording but some of it says 'Farm' and Dacre is the name of a place in the south of England where I think my father went camping. I can't read the cap-band either. Most of my family's relatives were from Leeds in Yorkshire but I don't know if any of these were from a different area. Thanks for your interest.

	http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/keepsafe/asset/details/19837442 What does the wording on the side of the truck says? http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/keepsafe/asset/details/19837426 Can you read the vessel’s name on the cap-band? Where did your extended family live as that might be a clue?
