This Lady was born in 1871. Any idea of her age in this photo.

Hi Paul,

Maybe around 60? Depending on how well she's aged, of course...she looks quite lined, but that could be due to a hard life rather than age  :-\

Cheers
Prue

Hello Prue,

I thought she might be in her 60's.

Thanks Prue, I appreciate your help.

Paul.

Looks like a few teeth gone?  :(

I would have said late sixties, seventies, so possibly mid to late 1930's?

Hi Paul,

Have to say I agree with Igor - late sixties or very early seventies.

Hi Paul   :)

Another for late 60s/early 70s. Also, I thought 1930s for the date.

Thank you Igor.

Thanks Pels :), thanks gnu :)

I found her death certificate today she died in 1945 age 73.

I know she had 12 or 13 children and had a very hard life.
Maybe she was just worn out :(

Thanks for your help.

Paul.
