Title: Clean up and date please my great uncle Oscar Vincent Smith
Post by: Ashjo on Sunday 23 July 17 11:42 BST (UK)
Would appreciate a clean up and dating of attached family photograph. Not all identified but the rear left are my great uncle Oscar Vincent Smith (kia1917) and wife Nelly. Centre almost certainly  my 2 x G Grandparents Thomas and Adeliza Smith. Thought to have been taken c.1910.
Thanks in anticipation, Ashjo.

1910 would be about right. Oscar's 2 1/2" starched collar was a short lived style from about 1908-12.
The women are also typical of mid-late Edwardian Era.

Pablo59 and Yvonne thanks for your work on the picture. Yours Pablo certainly puts a new impression on the subject, and Yvonne your clean up will really help in further identification of the group members. Great work.

Thanks japeflakes for your input the second one does show another added depth to the photograph.

Thanks to you too lord74 for your colour version. Now frantically going through my records checking birth years to work out ages c.1910 to see who could possible be who !! Only got three certainties so far.....

MartynS,

Many thanks for your input to my thread. Don't know how you restorers do it. I don't think I would have the patience and I certainly don't have the skill!!

Regards Ashj0.
