Perhaps they werent as old as they looked then? Hard life?-8 kids!  Would their clothes have been "sunday best"? The last of their children was born in 1899.I dont have the original photo,its a copy.The original is in Missouri with my Great Aunt.Ill ask if there's anything on the back of it. Thanks for your input. :)

The couple in the photo were born 1861 & 1863.Im guessing they look 60+ which takes us up tp 1920's.But do the clothes fit that period?

Glad i dont live near you or you'd probably throttle me! Im really sorry,its not Mary Jane its Margaret Jane.Through 3 generations of these Smiths most of the women are called Mary Ann,Mary Jane or Margaret! And the men aren't much better John,William,Thomas and Robert run through4 generations.I hope you didnt spend too long searching and i promise next time to be extra careful!!!  :-[
