Merry Christmas!

Ivan Hector Culbert (1918-1979). This photo was taken on Christmas Day 1940 in Brighton, Sussex, England on the sun porch of one of Ivan's billets.

Ivan Hector Culbert (the great-grandson of John Culbert and Mary Ward) is pictured above in 1940 on his first Christmas away from home. 

Ivan joined the Royal Canadian Regiment in January 1940 and was sent overseas. He returned home to Lucan, Ontario, Canada in 1946 with his Welsh war bride, Elvira Hutchings, and they had four children.

Merry Christmas, Culbert descendants everywhere!
