I was recently sent three pictures of two weddings which might have been in Zanzibar in the hope that I would be able to identify some of the people. I wasn't able to help, and I wasn't even sure that they were in Zanzibar, though....
....the architecture certainly suggests tropical climes, as........in this wedding, does the shortage of parents of bride and groom.This picture is of my parents' wedding in the Anglican cathedral in Zanzibar. None of their parents was present because it took place in 1940, during the war, but........I do know the names of all the people in the picture.I rather treasure this picture as both my parents look so happy, and I know that they were surrounded by people for whom they had both love and respect.
I am now left with the pictures of the other two couples. Very regretfully I will throw them away though I would love to have known who the people were, whether the pictures are of Zanzibar and, if not, then where, and, in particular, what happened to all the people. None of it has anything to do with me, and I suppose I really ought to mind my own business, but....
It has been pointed out that the picture of the second wedding, with five people in it, was taken in front of the Anglican Cathedral in Zanzibar. Many thanks, DC. Jon
