Arthur was my great great grandfather. I have the same photo in my possession that has written on the back of it that this is another member of my family, the Honorable Jabez Henry MP. I do not know how the photo I possess came to attain the note on its reverse. Nor do I know how how your claim that this represents Arthur Henfrey can be certain. I have in my possession documents about his life relating mainly to his application for the post of Secretary to the Royal Agricultural Society about 1858.
