Jennie Mann, portrait photo. A message is written on the reverse of this image, suggesting it belonged to Charlie Mann while away at war. The message reads: "To one I love away on duty, The Lord watch over us livest (?) me and thee. When we are absent be night or day, When distance lies between us land or sea, And we are hidden from each other's sight"

Wellington, north of Nanaimo, was the site of the first of the many mines Robert and James Dunsmuir would establish on Vancouver Island. Modest cottages were built for the miners employed in the mines.
In the early 1920s, Dunsmuir sisters, Dola and Muriel, and Muriel’s husband, Edward Molyneux, took time to tour the ruins of Europe in the aftermath of the war. Edward Molyneux was an ideal tour guide for the sisters, having served in 1915 with the Duke of Wellington Regiment on the Western Front. Although he was promoted to Captain for his actions in battle, injury resulted in the loss of sight in his left eye and withdrawal from active duty.
The girl is possibly one of the Humphreys children
