Oh wow thanks Pinetree. That is definitely her. "Tongthorn"- no wonder I couldn't find her.

Many thanks again

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Sophia Lengthorn (Leeds) 1851 census- Completed Thanks
« on: Saturday 20 April 13 13:47 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone help? I am trying to find the parents of Sophia Lengthorn. She was born about 1831 in the Wakefield/Leeds area. I can find her on later dates but she has already left home and so her parents are not named.

Many thanks in advance

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Re: Unknown Leeds Ancestor- photo date and age of subject please.

Thanks all of you. I did think the long pearl necklace looked like the 1920s. I guess this means that the lady was born around 1900 which might give a clue to her identity.

Hi
This photo is probably of a relative but I can't identify it.
It was taken at Fieldings, 12 Albion Place, Leeds.
Can anyone help with an approximate date of the photo or an estimate of the lady's age?
Many thanks
Sue

Thank you both so much for your help! I have never been able to find out much about Margarita but I do know she was a nurse before her marriage- she obviously carried on nursing in Canada.
I am so grateful to find out when they died.

Canada / Margarita & Bruce Ian Watt, Ontario
« on: Monday 06 August 12 19:58 BST (UK)  »
My father's sister, Margarita Wilson (b. 1913 Harrogate) married a Canadian serviceman, Bruce Ian Watt (b. 1909?) in 1945 and emigrated to Canada shortly after that. Her last address was in Kingsville, Ontario. I would like to find out when & where she died but I am not sure how to go about it.
Any advice would be welcome!

Pale Side Mill was advertised as "To sell or let" in the Leeds Mercury by Joshua Swallow at the beginning of 1896.
In 1901, William Andrew Swallow was lodging next door to Joseph Ward so perhaps they were in partnership or something like that?
