I have been able to find a thing or two about some of the young men in my previous blog. By looking into census records I found that by 1881, two years later, Ernest Benning was a Draughtsman's Assistant and that Alfred C.C. Schmitz was a Student of Painting. He went on to become rather accomplished, changed his name to Alfred C. Conrade and did some splendid paintings that still sell well at Auction Houses like Christies. Harry Crowhall Farrar had become a Ship's Draughtsman by 1891. Maintaining a nautical theme Constance Emily Bushell's father had been a Naval Captain and in 1881, Miss Bushell was still a scholar.
