Welcome Everyone!

These are photos taken in Sarnia sometime in the 1940's I would think, that I found at a London, ON. antiques mall. I have no idea who these people are and am hoping someone will recognize them.
I am the gg-niece of William James Ryder. I am in the process of writing some information about his interest in the Vendome Hotel and about the hotel itself. I notice you mention he was one of the original builders. Do you have proof of this? He is listed in the 1891 census as a clerk at the hotel. (must have been the St. Clair) as the Vendome was only built a year later. I wonder where he would have gotten the money to venture into such an undertaking. However in 1901 after Mr Hand died he is the owner and Mrs. Hand a partner. Can you help me sort this out. I am also looking for a picture of Billy Ryder to accompany the article on my website talespin.weebly.com. Please let me know if you can help.
