Tintype photo - Walmsley
« on: Friday 10 March 17 21:39 GMT (UK) »
Greetings - I have re-scaned my tintype photo as requested. The photo is from my late fathers records - Alan Thomas Walmsley b1919. The only record I have of ancestors outside the North of England are births in Ireland and my maternal great grandmother Emma Bagshaw emigrating to Republic of South Africa in 1910.

I am interested in the date of photo, where it was taken and the identity of the two subject. Any clues would be most appreciate.

Trevor Walmsley, Christchurch, New Zealand.

I've tried to clean it up a bit without going overboard. As for the dating question, Jim is extremely knowledgeable on such matters and gave a fairly comprehensive opinion in your original thread. You are unlikely to get better. :)
