Title: Francis Stevens (1872-1956) - colouring please
Post by: Avondale16 on Saturday 03 March 18 12:20 GMT (UK)
This is my 1st cousin 2 x removed in his Salvation Army uniform. It would be great to have a coloured version to go alongside his wife's photo (Mary) previously colourised by the talented people on here.

Thank you so much Pat - in Sally Army colours as well & you remembered my name & dates request.  ;)

I have just made contact with a cousin in Canada who is the great grandson of Francis & Mary & he has never seen a photo of either of them in their Army uniforms - he will delighted  ;D

Another great colourisation from you Rami - great detail especially on the chair & desk.

Much appreciated
Keith  :)

I wonder what the second book on the table is?
