Recently found photographs

As the title suggests, I've recently unearthed these photographs from the pile of family documents I have.

My mum is visible as the little girl at the back, sat next to her mother on the right. At the front are Betty and Ken. Alfred looks very relaxed smoking a pipe. I don't know who the woman at the back left is.
Betty at the  beach, still wearing pearls even with her swimming cossie - how stylish.

Mystery faces

In amongst the mountain of photographs I have inherited from my parents are a large number of unknown people. I thought I'd share some of these with you.

Written on the back is simply 'Margaret'
No idea who these cheerful chappies are
A pageant, I presume
On the back it reads 'Elsie'
