Three girls. Chester, possibly Humfrey-related
« on: Friday 23 June 17 07:21 BST (UK) »
I would also be grateful for help dating the following photo and ageing the sitters. I have this group shot of three girls, and then separate ones of each which I will also post. I think they may be related to William Augustus Humfrey (1869-1944), whose photo collection I think I have. I know about him, but want to figure out who these three are. I'm assuming they're sisters, but might not be I guess.

What a lovely photo,  :)

they do look like sisters,  hope you don't mind me tidying them up a bit,

They do look like sisters, by the clothes they are wearing I would guess about 1905/1910. The girl on the right looks to be the oldest at about 15/16 the one on the left about 13/14 and the youngest in the middle about 11/12.
There was a Henry Steffen Grocott living in Tarporley on the 1881/91 & 1901 Census so this would tie in, but his occupation states Living by own means not Photographer.
