LAST week we threw down a ThrowbackThursday challenge for readers.
BDN reader Jacqui Devlin sent in her 1963 4th Class photo from St Patrick’s Primary School.
She is now 60 years old and living in Sydney.
In the photo, Jacqui is second back row, fourth from the right.
But she was wondering who else was in the photo and whether they are still around.
The response was immediate and very productive.
Firstly, Jen Russell emailed in as many of the names as she and her mother could identify.
Then numerous Facebook responses helped fill in the gaps, with plenty of people either in the photo or who knew someone in it, placing names in position.
Below is the full list as it currently stands.
Email ben.smyth@fairfaxmedia.com.au if you have anything to add – or better yet, if you want to share your own old class photo to track down long-lost schoolmates!
