The Moores boat 'The Nancy'The Nancy

HAPPY memories of the days when Albert Moore's family ran a fleet of fishing boats from West Parade were recalled by Phyllis Evett.
Phyllis, of Church Vale Road, submits this beach scene. Pictured centrally aboard the Moore family's favourite boat, the Nancy, is Phyllis' father Fred Hunnisett, who worked for the firm.
Phyllis can't put a year to the picture but can identify, wearing the trilby hat, Jim Willouby, who owned the nearby Parkhurst Hotel (now Traffers bar) and Jim's young son, seen on the left.
Albert Moore (junior) and his father make up the group.
