Here’s a photo detail of Tim Parnell and his wife Virginia (not Jean) taken during the 1966 Tasman Series and found in Graham Gauld’s bio of Tim’s father Reg:



I think Virginia could quite easily be the woman in the middle in the Silverstone photo, but not either of the others.

 

I agree with that, and it's the only resemblance I can see of any of the women pictured. The girl with Endruweit does not look at all like "Miss Ginther", nor do Sally Stokes, Jimmy's sisters, the Condon sisters or whoever that is in the picture with Virginia Parnell. They are quite clearly all different persons, except *maybe* for Sally Stokes being with Jim Endruweit. Maybe "Miss Ginther" was just "the Lotus nurse"?

I have to say that for once I am disappointed with TNF, unable to identify a woman applying a sticking plaster 56 years ago. Normally someone would have found her medical records by now.

Hold your disappointment.

Mystery solved. It's Gaile Maggs (Gaile Condon). Identified by Lynne Spence, Gaile's sister.

Excellent! Thanks Richard and Lynne.
