Great grandma is need of a clean and colour please
« on: Thursday 22 October 09 19:28 UTC (UK) »

Hi All,

Wondered if someone could please do one of their fantastic clean and colours.

Some of you have already cleaned and coloured these twins aged 5 and would be brill if you could please do the same for them again (a few years older)

Thanks in advance

Gary

Hi Carolyn and Caroline

Many thanks for your time and efforts to produce these beautiful and fantastic restores and colours.

Really love the coloured versions, surprising how the colour can change the way a photo is viewed.

Thanks again

Gary Likewise as Caz's comment, the subjects in the photo made all the difference.

What beautiful children, I imagine in those days that twins were very rare, what are their names?
Kind regards Susan

Hi Gary,

What a beautiful picture and such pretty girls. They look older then 5 to me.

I would think that you are thrilled with the wonderful colourings that you have to date.  Theses restorers are brilliant aren't they!

Hi Rabbit B,

Thanks you for your kind comments and yes the restorers are brilliant _ I just don't now how they do it.

And yes you are correct they are older than 5 - in my original message I was refering to a previous picture I had posted in which they were 5.

I also have photos of these two girls in their teens, their twenties and finally when they were grey haired (possibly in their 70s)

Hi Susan

Thanks for the kind comments about these relatives.

I answer to your question about their names - the girl on the right (my great grandmother) is Mary Frances Williamson and the other girl is Annie Bartram (known as Auntie Nancy)

Hi Gary,

I reckon that these two are 10-12 or so, they are beginning to look very grown up to me!

Would that be about right?

PS Hope that you had a good holiday!
