Personal Stories
Professional Photo
Joseph Wilson sent a professional photo to Mrs Venning a fortnight before he embarked for overseas on 26 April 1916. Mrs Venning's son Percy William was wounded on 28 April 1915 at Gallipoli before dying on the hospital ship HMT Galeta about 2nd May 1915.
Both men were from Pinnaroo and presumably were friends.
