Beverley Ussher and his wife Ethel (daughter of the Vicar of Stockton, the Rev Henry Martin) had three children - Kathleen, Jack and Stephen -before Beverley was killed in action on 19th June 1915.
Thanks to a fascinating and extensive family photographic archive we are able to give a snapshot of the Ussher children as they grew. And while the photographs suggest that the children went on to live materially comfortable lives, they still had to do so without the love of a father.
