Individual photographs may be found in multiple places e.g. if you want to find Mickley school football teams, then you can scan through the photographs in the Mickley, Schools and Football categories. Clicking an image will magnify it and reveal the caption. Where the name of the photographer, or more commonly the name of the person who contributed the photograph to the Society, is known, it is shown as part of the caption for the photograph.
