Hi Jackie, I also used to "clean" the edges of the Photo's where shown. Now I tend to leave them as I understand that they can give the experts a clue as to the date. Having said that I tend to be erratic depending on what sort of rush I'm in. It's just a pity that I had to rush this but I am just trying to get my head around 1862 handwritten Birth registers for transcribing. Tomkin

Hi Jackie, I thought I was going " Doo Lally" when I re-read this posting. Then I realised that I had not seen your first comment regarding the trim but my response had taken me to your second comment. I wrongly assumed that you meant the trim of the photo. ( I'm must keep taking the tablets) I must admit that I took a risk re the colour of the trim etc. (this comes from rushing). Thats why I apologised in advance for my mistakes. If I had taken the time I would have checked against photo's I took years ago at Windsor of the Queens guard,but I assumed different regiments had differences in the uniform.

Hi Jackie hooked this out of my old holiday photo's. Don't know the regiment but I understand it'smainly the number of buttons and their arrangement that alters plus the odd small addition
Lets see if this post O.K. May have to crop and resize. Tomkin

Hi Jackie, This is a cropped photo from my old holiday snaps. He is guarding the Queen at Windsor castle. Haven't a clue who he is, he wouldn't talk to me. Anyway, have a good look at everything and we will try to establish a final photo. ( I've looked at more Irish Guard websites and not one of them shows the ceremonial uniform. Very interesting sites though) Tomkin
