The Peter Tavy book contains a photo of the programme of a concert in aid of the Football Club, in 1900 (p.90). Many took part, mostly singing alone, but one duet was sung by Mr T Ash and Miss Vogwill - I guess probably this couple - when they were courting? (The sang "Music Sweet Shall Flow Tonight")
They also sang individually - Thomas Ash singing "The Charge of the 21st Lancers" and Miss Vogwill "Willie, we have missed you". The book notes that Thomas Ash was particularly appreicated for his fine voice.
