Chrishall Football Team 1921. The two photos are clearly taken on the same day though the location is slightly different and they had obviously had time to “light up” for the picture above. (Did they smoke during a game?!)

I was very pleased to find your excellent web page about Chrishall and the photo of a distant in-law Frank Fox, above. I was following his father William Nelson Fox’s line and had got stuck after the 1911 Census, and so had given up with that line for some time.
William Nelson Fox was a game-keeper on the 1901 census, but in Wiltshire, so I had wondered whether the William and family on the 1911 census could be the correct one. The photo above puts Frank, at least, very firmly in Chrishall in 1921, taking part in village life.
Thank you very much for this Valerie. And how interesting to know that Franks relatives, albeit rather distant, ended up in Australia. Does anyone else have any remembrance of the Fox family in Chrishall?
