    Written on the back is "My Granddad EG Snell" Handwriting is identified as that of Edward George Snell by Dinah Ryeland-Brown. Therefore it is assumed that this is a picture of William Snell and that the note is "My Granddad" and it is signed "EG Snell" rather than EG Snell being an identification of the person in the picture.
