Arthur and Ada seem to have been very unsure about their ages (Ada's
age is 9 years different in 10 years!). Harold and Lily must have been
twins and John L must be the son of either Jane or Lily.
Later on in 1931, Emily Medforth becomes the headmistress of the school, I
am not sure if she is related to any of the above people.
