Portrait of Evelyn (Thomas) Pike in her wedding dress on the day of her wedding to Ernest Fletcher Pike. Cataloguer's title. Evelyn Thomas married Ernest Fletcher Pike (1914-1985), son of Ernestine (Forward) Pike and Arthur S. Pike, and grandson of Ernest Edward Forward. They had two children, a daughter Karon, and a son, Ernest. The Rorke Family Photograph Collection contains 301 black and white and 28 colour photographs of the Rorke Family of Carbonear, Newfoundland, as well as the Forward and Bemister families from that area who are linked to it by marriage. Although spanning from the 1840s-1970s, most photos are from 1900-45, showing family events, homes and Newfoundland and Labrador locations. There is also an album of photos taken while James Rorke attended the Leys School in Cambridge, England.
