Title: Date and age for Irish Granny or Great Granny
Post by: culbaire on Friday 15 August 25 21:46 BST (UK)

Hi. Could any of the very knowledgeable people here suggest an approx date for the photograph and an approximate age for the girl/woman. Would appreciate a tidy up as well. Thanks

Not an expert at dating but, to start this one off, I think it's in the style of the Gibson Girls, so late 1890s to 1900s; perhaps someone born 1880s.

I would agree with McGroger early 1900 have some similar photos of my Grandma and she was born 1875

Maybe as old as 30 or late 20's.  The eyes look wise like a school teacher.

Thanks for a lovely tidy up Peter. Much appreciated.
Thanks also for suggestions for date and age. Granny was born mid 1890s and great granny mid 1860s so possibly picture isn't of either.
