March 1917 Bingham reunion photo. I can confirm that the couple far left seated on wall are my great-grandparents, Louisa Bingham ( née McCulloch) and her husband Thomas Bingham. Thomas was the son of John Bingham. Louisa and Thomas had 3 son who served in the Great War. One of them - Owen Ernest Hugh Bingham - was killed in the Battle of Romani six months before this reunion photo was taken. Later, In the 1920s, Louisa was invited to unveil the then newly constructed First World War Memorial in Ulverstone.
