Based on very limited research was able to locate quite a lot of information regarding this family and have included some of it below along with details of the photographs which are included in the album:

was born in Southwark to William Elliott and Eliza Ann Hayward on June 27th 1852 -if my memory is correct, in Gibraltar Row, where father was a grocer and cheesemonger. The family moved to Ratcliff soon after, where his brothers Edward, Arthur Spencer and Thomas were all born. Father William died in 1863, and so the sons were sent elsewhere to live (Arthur had already died) to live. Edward went with Eliza Ann to Yorkshire, Thomas to Aunt Emma, by then married in Bournemouh, and W H E with uncle Spencer Hayward in Margate. From there he entered Spurgeon's College to train as a Baptist Minister in 1881.Need help with Valentine ELLIOTT
