Back in the day: Recognize these two young gentlemen?

Last Friday’s photo — barmen

Our hospitality picture from last week proved to be something of a mystery. 

The only individual that could be identified was the late Stanley ‘Gubby’ Wilkinson on the far left of the photo. His sister Lola Dean and his great niece Lorna-Jean Joyiens confirmed it was Mr. Wilkinson, but could not identify the rather swish-looking occasion.

Ms. Dean wondered if the man standing beside Stanley could be Kenneth Simons, but was unsure.

Of her brother ‘Gubby’, Ms. Dean praised his wonderful skills as a chef, and spoke of how he loved to fish.

If you can help us to discover the people or stories in this week’s ‘Back in the Day’, please drop me a line at 278-1880 or email me: gskelton@

Whatever information you provide will help us to piece together a little bit more of Bermuda’s photographic history. 

Please call or e-mail me with what you know about our archive photos, and all the information I receive will be compiled for the following week’s paper.

That was then: Recognize these two young gentlemen? Both would go on to achieve high office. 

Who are they and what do you remember about them from this era?
