I think you've been given great advice as the little girl's double width drop waist panel and the button leggings looks good for the era c.1915.Thanks. There seems to be a consensus from about 1911-1915.

Daniel ( who lived a century!) went to the United StatesThis was Daniel Stephen. Yes, he had a long and colourful life. I met him once, quite a while ago now, when he visited Australia. I wish I had the opportunity now to ask him some questions! At least 2 of that generation went to the US and at least one to Australia.

it also was not unheard of for much older men to marry younger womenYes, I had wondered that. I thought maybe there was some resemblance between woman and man, indicating he was her father, but I'm not much good that that and I may only be imagining it. I am hoping the age of the child will be the easiest basis fior identification. So far I haven't found a good choice, but I need to do some more searching in the wider family tree.
