Gentlemen of the Kirk family

This is a family picture taken in a photographer’s studio, though we do not know who the photographer was.

Back row: Herbert Kirk, others not known; front row: Ernest Kirk, William Kirk (father), Jack Kirk, Jim Kirk. Their relationships to Mr Dennis Kirk are not clear at the moment of writing. He is the son of Tom Bonser Kirk (b.1889), son of John Bonser Kirk senior, b.1868, who in turn was son of Thomas and Ann Kirk. None of these correspond with the names in the caption.

Part of the Kirk family moved from Bottesford to Retford to work on the railway and then moved from there to Todwick and Kiveton in South Yorkshire and became small holders and miners(my branch of the family). I too have struggled with the links and family lines in Bottesford. My relatives seem mainly to have been John Kirk

My great great grandfather is William Kirk in this photograph. His daughter Mary, is my maternal great grandmother.
