Help with dating please this photo maybe of Amy Osborne
« on: Friday 04 May 18 22:54 BST (UK) »
I'm not sure who exactly this is - this is all I have, I don't have the back of the image to upload. Can anyone help with an approx date so I can narrow down the possibilities.

I'm thinking Edwardian..... :-\

I would guess at around 1915 give or take a year or two  :D Another lovely one. I have the exact same chair, it was given to me whilst on holiday in the South of France about ten years ago, would brought it back to the UK in our tourer  :o

Thanks Carol - I was thinking this was my maternal grandmother but she was born 1904 & I'm aging the little girl as 3 years old so I think I need to look at birth around 1911/1912. Fancy you having the same chair - a real antique  :)

Children are hard to date as clothes were often passed down...I doubt that it is earlier....if anything it could be into the 1920s, so could be the next generation. It doesn't fit with the Edwardian period in my view.

Agree with the comments. A starting point of WW1 but in my view this is 1920's.

Thank you Carol & Jim - a great help. I have a great Aunt born 1919 so this could be her taken in 1922/3.

The bottom right of the picture has the embossed words "MORA Ltd PHOTOGRAPH BRIGHTON". Does that help with a date? Did your grandmother live in/near Brighton?
