I wouldn't rule out it being early 1940s Sheila so it could easily be her...clothes were often passed on during the war years.

This could easily be a photo from the early forties, childrens styles didnt move on a great deal and she looks about seven , so not a great stretch from the thirties to early forties.

Could be worth a try,  I have a number of photos in my collection of youngsters and cannot pair them up with any adults in the family, very frustrating, although I have tried the 'ears don't change' and distance between features technique. Shame when people remain unidentified, but if people don't write on the reverse we are left with these dilemmas.

Hi I was just wondering if you knew whether this Robert Lawson was in the Royal Navy? Ive been looking into my own Grandfather and just found out that he served with a Robert Lawson as a DEMS gunner.

Very Curious, did your Lawson family come from County Durham.
Kind regards
