Another pram from worse photo
« on: Thursday 28 July 11 11:06 BST (UK) »
Is it possible to infill missing data from a photocopy of a photo? If so please can someone do what they can with this. The photocopy was sent to me in the 1980s from photographs owned by a cousin of my grandfather's. The owner has since died as has her daughter so I do not know if the original exists any more.

This may be Mary Jane gawn who died in 1883 when her youngest child was still a baby.

This was taken around mid 1890's & possibly up to 1900.

Thank you Jim. The woman who owned the photo was the daughter of James Gawn born 1877 in Ireland. If  1890s then it cannot be her grandmother, Mary Jane who died 1883 aged 41. Maybe one of James' older sisters.

I only have one photo of May Jane Gawn nee Henry and I thought it could be her but not in 1890s!

This one's 1860's so she's early - mid 20's in this.

Thank you again Jim. Mary Jane Henry married William Gawn in June 1869 so this could be from about that time. William's oldest daughter Lizzie was born April 1869 and I think his first wife Ellen died in or shortly after childbirth. I was thinking the 1890's photo might be that oldest daughter who married in 1895 in Glasgow, though she shoud not resemble Mary Jane.
