I showed my mother this photo & she recognised her sister (far right front) Stamatoula Coolentianos Comino. She thinks that she is the little girl in the front far left. Her late brother Dennis is in the front (the taller boy with the hat on)three away from her. Thea Lefcothea (Stamatoula's sister) is standing just behind her sister's right shoulder.

Thank you Shirley! Also, the boy in front holding the candle is Nick Cominos. His sister Sophie is the very little girl with the white coat in the far left.
