Ruth Hughan Holworthy and her son, Wilmot Francis Holworthy.






Top: This beautiful photograph of Ruth Madeline Hughan was handed down both the Holworthy side of the Hughan family tree and the Oakley side, with both myself and Warwick Holworthy of Queensland holding copies.

Middle and Bottom: This fantastic photograph came to Warwick Holworthy through his late father, Allan Holworthy, and his mother Nancy Charmian Holworthy. It is such a touching scene...baby Wilmot Holworthy is so obviously tiny, and being held by a nurse rather than his young mother who had passed away just days after giving birth to her first baby. The young girl seems anxious about holding so precious a bundle, or perhaps she was just nervous posing in front of the camera for the baby's grandfather, Allan Hughan, who captured this scene.
