Little Jo
 Listen to the item
There is a grave in a cemetary in Rainham, Essex which contains the bodies of three people although the only name on the stone is that of a Polish man, Joseph. The other two occupants are Josie and John Fincham, the parents of Mary Grove.
Joseph, or Jo as Mary knew him, wasn't her father, but almost as good as. The more Mary thinks about these three people, the more she realises how little she really knew them.
The pictures here show Mary's family, but there's no picture of Little Jo as he was known, because to Mary's knowledge, one was never taken.
If you knew Little Jo from Rainham in Essex and have a photograph of him, Mary would love to see it and so would we.
