Can some please date this photograph of my great-grandmother.  She lived in Knaresborough, Yorkshire.

Thanks.

When was she born?...she looks to be around late 70s early 80s I would say.

She was born in 1857 so that would make her 80 years in 1937.   I was wondering when choker necklaces were back in?

What a gorgeous photo, would you mind if I added some colour to it, just for some practice.

That is fine.  Are you able to let me see what you can do with it?

Hi, didn't want to overdo the colour, hope you like it.

Would you mind if i added it to my website, click on little house on left to look, don't worry if you'd rather not.

Regards

Very pleased with it.  Pity my mother died last year as she would have loved to see it.  I think she only met her grandmother once and was terrified of her.  I think she was a pretty strong lady.

I am quite happy for you to add it to your website.

Thanks for that

Susan
