| Description : |
Studio portrait, believed to be of Ethel Lucy, daughter of William and Edith Lucy. The photograph has been tinted. Ethel Lucy, together with her brother and sisters W Everard Lucy, Ivy Nelson, Ida Stocker and Kath Ireland donated to the State Library in the 1970s and 1980s a collection of books, toys and games that had belonged to them and to their parents before them. The family lived at Modbury from 1873 until 1938. They went to school at Modbury Primary School and helped on the farm before and after school. They rarely visited Adelaide because of the distance but their father William Everard Lucy would occasionally bring home a toy or a game when he visited the city. The clockwork toys were played with only on special occasions. |
