Who else was living in the house?
What did Raymond Ryan do for a living? Where was his primary residence?

The Ollerhead’s moving certificate
The photocopy series
We received photocopies of these photographs when we bought the house. I’m not exactly sure if they belong here in the Raymond Ryan times, or in the Wells era, but I’m guessing here based on the shrubbery in the sunken garden.
