Carol and Mike, in addition to your wonderful restoring, you two habitually, modestly praise your fellow restorers. This is particularly welcome and nice when an OP might be a bit slow in returning. So, well done you two!

Thanks for the positive feedback Mike and Peter....sometimes you have to go with what you are given and do your best....even when it is over 140 years old, a small file and not in great shape.

Many thanks Carol, Peter and Mike for your interesting improvements on the photo. They all have their own unique spin, but I particularly liked Carole's version.  In addition, the child is definitely a girl and is in fact my great Aunt Lizette with her mother.
Many thanks.

Thank you Terry for your superb updates -  both the photographs are great.  Look very natural. I must show these to my mother who is 97 in a few weeks time and see if she recognises the older lady who is in fact her Grandmother.  Many thanks again.
