Wren Family by Bridge of Remembrance ca 1944

1940s

The boy is my father Gavin Francis Wren, born 1940. He is holding the hand of his mother Eileen Hyacinth Wren & his sister Lorna Scott (Wren). The other man in the photos is Lorna's husband Eric Scott. They are on the river side of the Bridge of Remembrance. I don't know what the occasion is, but interesting that Cashel Street behind them is empty of people.
