Who are these 4 girls?

"This belonged to my aunt who died in 1960. She married a man from Tupton Walter Scot in 1928. They lived in Tupton but were back in Clay Cross about 1945 give or take a year. In 1939 they were living at Ankerbold Farm owned by the Mather family I seem to think they had a cottage within the farm yard. They mean nothing to me feel I cannot just throw them away, you may have more success than me in finding out who they are. They did try to move to Ward St, but the landlord would not allow them to keep their dog, so they came to Clay Cross, the house was later bombed in the War. They always said the dog saved their lives. One of the victims of the bombing is buried in Clay Cross Cemetery."

Tommy Stamp on Horse. Tommy a well known farmer and milk man in Tupton and Wingerworth is sat on the Horse with Margaret his daughter. Tommy's father is holding the horse and the young woman we think is Edna Haykin ( nee Westbury ) who did some work on the farm.

Rebecca and Herbert Turner with Kathleen (then Turner) became Stamp. The Turners bought Whitehouse Farm when the Hunloke estate was sold off.

John Madin who built and named Madin Street and other properties in Tupton. Lived in big stone house above Madin street.

Not sure where this is. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
