This group photo was taken on the lawn of Club de Recreio at the wedding reception of my parents, Belle and Willie Reed, on 21 August, 1939.  

Standing from left: Phyllis (D'Almada E Castro) dos Remedios, Belle's eldest sister; I believe this is Harry Gubbay, family friend; the next four people are three of Belle's relatives and a family friend.  Middle row from left: Maria Rita (da Silva) Reed,  Reggie Reed and Arthur Reed.  Front row: Vilma da Silva, Maria Rita's grandniece, next to Robert Reed.  She was also in the 1936 group photo taken in front of the Broadwood Road house, standing in front of her parents, Nenita and Alfredo da Silva.

Laura, good to hear from you again.  Thank you for confirming that is your grandfather Harry in the above photo.  He came to mind the moment I saw this photo in my parents' wedding album.  I am so glad you saw my post, as I was hoping you would!
