Please date my photo - Coulson - Durham
« on: Thursday 04 January 18 07:10 GMT (UK) »
Thank you in advance to anyone who can give me any information including date estimate of this photo which was likely taken in Durham England. The photo is printed on a postcard and the far right person is my great grandfatherJoseph Harrington Coulson.

Thank you!!

JHC was born 1883. The chap on the right  looks about 25-27 so perhaps  photo taken little earlier than Jim's suggestion.

Hi there. Do you know JHC was born 1883 from a public search or do you possible have more information that may be of interest to me?
