Thank you China.
You are good. I did not notice the girl’s spats. The girl I think is Ada and her grandfather had a tannery and also made shoes and taught her father to make shoes also. The spats seem to be made of fabric but may have been made by her father as well as the shoes.
It is all very interesting and always something to learn.

Thank you
Regards
Terri

Do any of the photos show the town of West Maitland? If so, please post. I am writing a book on the subject. Here is a note on the photographer in question

I have quite a few photos by J. C Wiepel West Maitland. Most of the photos are of family.
