b & W photo negatives
« on: Sunday 10 September 17 22:01 BST (UK) »
I am attaching a negative of unidentified people from my ancestry.  Would appreciate any help in making them into a photo so I can perhaps figure out who they are. 

Thanks,  gvgirl

  That's definitely my maternal grandmother on the far right in the floral dress.  Still have no idea about the others but you made a good effort.  Thank you

Given what you had to work with, I think it's great!  That's my grandma Lillie on the right end in the floral dress.   Thanks!
