So I came across this photo, of all places ebay, which was taken 7/22/31 on my grandfathers birthday while the team was sailing to the 1931 Ryder Cup aboard the Empress of Britain. We actually have a copy of the special dinner that was made that night in his honor (all 8 courses and drinks had golf related names) which I will also try to upload later.

Pictured Rear Left to Right = Arthur Havers, Bill Davies, George Duncan, Archie Compston (very famous golfer of that era who was actually my fathers godfather), Charles Whitcomb, Fred Robson

Pictured Lower Left to Right = Abe Mitchell, Sid Easterbrook, Bert Hodson, Ernest Whitcomb
