Elias Charles Walters

Elias Charles Walters of 8 Manor Road with a horse and a studio portrait taken a few years earlier.  The pictures date from the early twentieth century and belonged to Fred Mason. We are grateful to his daughter Val Harman who lent it to us.

A market gardener, he was born in Childswickham in 1849, married Diane White in 1885 and lived at one time at Grey Gables, Manor Road.  He died in 1932.

Here is an article about the Walters market gardening family.
