Hi All,
Yep it's me agaiin!! ::)
Aren't you glad I have 50 new photos to sort through!! :o
I know the lady on the right is my aunt - is the single lady the same person?
Cheers
Keith
P.S. For anyone who "nose" me - they are all Batemans.
-
That's a real tricky one Keith. Having seen lots of your Bateman photos (on that website of yours), she does have some family characteristics. She has a similar nose and eyes to the first one and a similar bottom lip but the smile is different and with that hat ???
I think I'm going to say, probably no but i e3xpect you'll have some yeses ;)

I reckon they are the same - that second picture looks like it's been distorted longways Keith - did you do some dodgy resizing??!! ;) ;D

Prue
Found out again!!
I had 4 goes at trying to get that correct - only been sent 3/4 of the photo - skew whiff - so my best effort doesn't past muster then Prue!!
Will now go back for attempt no 5
Keith

Well if you'd told me that before hand Bateman >:( >:( >:(
I did think it looked strange but being the polite Welsh/Scots lady that I am didn't like to question either your scanning skills or your relatives. Prue obviously doesn't have my reticence ;D
Let's have another look with a new scan and give her a temporary crown on that gap in her teeth please.

This is as I received the photo!!
Sorry I have had another go and fattened up her cheeks !!
Keith
-
I'll put them together for you but I'm still not sure
-
I think I am going mad - am I seeing things I want to see??!!
There is a half sister as well could either/both be on this group??!!
Keith
-
The one in the middle and on the right are the same. Definitely.

(and what ya doing nicking my art work ;D ;D ;D)

Hi Keith,
What was the question again?
Tomkin ;D ;D
-
Now come on Tomkin - pay attention!! ;D :o
The Question was - Are these all the Bateman family!!
Keith

Hi Keith,
The first 3 are, the last one could be a strag.
By the way, see if this site has anything useful for you.

Hi Keith,
The link could be case sensitive. I'll imput it again.

Tomkin, he's kidding you with the last - he's reversed the other woman in the first photo :o
Gadget
-
I did that to make the comparison easier!
The only one I am (nearly) sure of is the first one of the 4 - the others are guesses - perhaps the reversed one if the cause of the murder trial!!
Keith
-
Prue obviously doesn't have my reticence ;D
Gadget
LOL - nope, typical brash Aussie here - call a spade a bl**dy shovel, me ;D
I am so confused Keith...now I don't know who's who - I still think the first two you posted are the same lady (even more so now that she's less "stretched") Third lady a definite maybe ;D She looks very similar ...can you give her a wink and make her smile, perhaps?
Prue :)

Hi Keith,
Ooooohh! you little tinker.
What murder trial. Have I missed something. I shall have to stop doing three jobs at the same time.
Tomkin ??? ::) ;D

Keith
With all your newly acquired photos, why don't you have a 'guess the rellies' section on your website? It would be fun, especially now Prue has slowed down her Photo Dating Challenges :o :o :o

Well he did ask - so I will have to mention this page on my website:
http://batemans-history.rootschat.net/shotherlover.htm
The man in photos is DEF. my uncle Jim - so if they are his 2 sisters - one of them is Floss - the one who had a lover!!
Cheers
Keith

I am so confused Keith...now I don't know who's who
You are Prue - well that makes me feel a bit better - what chance has a poor English Man got!!
I have Oz and (near) Scots ladies helping me sort out my Hertfordshire relatives!!
Cheers
Keith
-
My goodness Mr Bateman - are your family rabbits ??
I looked once - there was 2 - went away came back - there was 3 - went away came back - there was 4 !! :P
To heck with it - I think the photo is Tomkin's Cousin Hector !! ::) ::) ::) ::) ( born in Ireland !! )
Annie :-\
-
It's always nice to have a level headed comment from you Annie!! ;D ;D
Now you mention it ........
Keith
-
OK! I'll be serious now ......... ::)
I think 2 and 3 are the same lady !! but they're all related !!
Annie :) :)
-
Think Annie and I are at one Keith - now what piccies have you instore for us today ::) ::) ::)
-

Annie :) :)
Hope you are right Annie - if you are then 2/3 is the half sister to the other 2 girls !
Now !!!
Is this a wedding group or just guests - no flowers in button holes etc - but in front of a church AND is the lady 2nd from the right the same as no 4 above!!
-
To put them on the same page
-
Hi Keith,
You are probably not aware of this, but people go to
church for other reasons than weddings.
Tomkin ::) ::) ;D

Hi Keith,

Tomkin ::) ::) ;D
Well I have been told that ;D ;D ;D
But why have your photo taken? And C1930 when film was expensive!!
And no babies around for a Christening!
So I am now struggling! ::)
And you have not said if you think they are the same person - or is that just a ladies' thing guessing if they are the same people!!
Cheers
Keith
-
yep church lady and lady onthe right same people.
Sharon
-
I've given the third one a smile ;D
Sharon
-
Hi Keith,
I tried to help you before and you threw a murder at me.
Besides who said it's a church. I thought it was the entrance to your Manor
House.
Tomkin :D :D ;D ;D
-
Would I lie to you!! ;D ;D
THIS IS A WEDDING taken at the same place - with the rest of the Batemans in attendence!!
It looks like a wedding - but the other one only could be!?
Cheers
Keith
-
Hi Keith,
They could all be standing outside your front door for
all I know,
Tomkin ;) ;D
-
In my best bar tenders voice "Take it outside boys" ;D
Sharon
-
Hi Keith,
Is the clue that the pictures file name is "wedding-Guests"
or is that a red herring?
Tomkin ::) :D ;D ( I still think it's outside Batesman Towers )
-
Hi Sharon,
Mine is a pint and Keith will have a large
Highland Park,
Tomkin
-
No I put that on so I would remember which one to put on RC!! ;D ;D
The thing is my new 1st cousin sent me the photo as "unknown" - so it must be a relative of either his side or mine!!
I wondered if they were just posing after someone else's wedding or what?
As you say it could be for anything but...........
Come on Ladies help these 2 poor men who are now struggling with this ::) ::)
Cheers
Keith
P.S. Thanks Sharon for putting a smile on her - that was one reason I wondered if she was a Bateman - it's the only one of a Bateman without a smile!! (except for the wedding ones - that must prove something!!)

Keith
What's the question ???
Gadget
-
Now !!!
Is this a wedding group or just guests - no flowers in button holes etc - but in front of a church AND is the lady 2nd from the right the same as no 4 above!!
Now I've found the question -embedded in all sorts of stuff ??? The 2nd lady looks quite like no 4.
The two in the middle are holding hands - it could be a wedding or could they have gone out to some posh place - not sure about Nat Trust places and the like in those days. Otherwise, they're minor gusts at a wedding - only the close family had sprays/lapel buttonholes.

Got back to the middle of the last page !

It's Tomkin trying to get at me :( :(
Just because he wouldn't go to my website to read about the murder trial! :o
Keith
-
Think I answered it above Keith ;D Why won't Tomkin go to your website- i have to go at least once a day ;D
Gadget

Hi Gadget,
It's on my list of priorities, but I'm sinking
at the moment. ( did you notice that I bought him a drink
but he has not reciprocated?)
'Nuff said,
Tomkin
-

But Sharon has just sent me the bill!! :o
Keith
-
Come on folks, get back to the topic - this is not the ELS ya know ::)
Keith, I answered you're question. Now what's the next one :P
(Tomkin, you should know better than to buy Keith a drink when he's working ;D )
-
Hi Keith,
On the wedding photo there is a lady who is "Cut off".Out of interest
is it possible to reinstate her?
Tomkin
-
Hi Keith,
The first and second (lady wearing the girl guide type hat)
are of the same person. The 3rd lady is a different person as is no.4.
My initial guess was that 1/2 & 3 are closely related but no.4 is a stragg.
Now I'll look at your other posers.
Tomkin
-
The full photo of the wedding includes the Jim's wife's relations - which I know even less about!!
Cheers
Keith
