Does anyone have a photo of Harry McGough who was out at Tingledale and then at William Bay in the 1930's and 1940's. He was involved in making the lick to combat the Wasting Disease. We have a school photo of Myra McGough in 1947 and presume this is his daughter. The photo is required for a book on WW1 soldiers who returned from the war. Contact with a descendant would also be appreciated. Thankyou.
