Comment: Sometimes known as 'Maternity' though this title cannot be confirmed.
Recent information received suggests that the woman depicted is a Mrs Hollingsworth, who worked as house-keeper to Dr Phillips, and who had four children, three boys and the youngest, Audrey Hollingsworth (b. 1922), shown here as the baby. One of the sons Leonard was depicted instead as a girl. [1] References: [1] E-mail from Alex Radford (grand-daughter of Audrey Hollingsworth) received 12 March 2015.
