Does anyone have a photo of either or both Madoline nee EDWARDS married Harold COBB 1908 or her mother Louisa Fauvel nee DE GRUNCHY married William Gladstone EDWARDS. At the top of a history of the COBB family I have seen a wedding photo of Alice (Mabel) Cobb to Alfred JACOBI. I would like to know the name of the lady in the top right hand corner please. I will be grateful for any help I can get.
Thank you mjfkj

There is a family tree at Ancestry provided by Kirsten Bland that has a photo with this description:
29 Jul 1908
Napier, New Zealand
Harold and Madge Cobb nee Edwards just before going on their honeymoon. The photos was probably taken by Harold's mother, Harriet S Cobb.:

There is free access to the Library edition of Ancestry at Hamilton libraries.

Kirsten Bland also has this photo:
Alfred Jacobi & Alice Mabel Cobb's wedding
26 Mar 1902
Napier
Wedding of Alfred Jacobi and Alice Mabel Cobb. Also in the photo are Alice's parents and siblings.

That may be the photo you refer to. The man in the photo referred to in message #2 has a moustache and is not unlike the fellow in the top right hand corner of this large group. Hard to match photos of ladies with grand hats.

Another version of the large group photo:

Make google your friend.
Work your way down the page and there is the photo mentioned in message #2:
http://thecobbfamilyofnapier.blogspot.com/p/harold.html

The large group photo is also there and points out Harold Cobb; not the one in the top right corner!

Thanks everyone. The name should be De Gruchy not Grunchy. It is the lady in the top right hand corner of the big wedding photo I am interested in and in particular a photo of Mrs Louisa Edwards. I am trying to identify a woman in a photo I have and need a definite photo of Louisa to see if it matches. I was hoping to see if there were any resemblance to Madoline and the photo I have but the age difference in these photos is too great.
