This Circus was family from my mothers side. It was owned by my Grandmother's two brothers and one sister. Fred, Horace & Rose Astley. (Astley was a stage name) This photo was at Scarborough in UK in the 1920/30s. Mother started in the Circus business when a child performed with Dog act, Geese. Ponies and presented Rosie the elephant.
