Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Re: Assistance with dating Mcdowell photographs and identifying subjects

Thank you for your responses, maddys52 and Treetotal. Do you think they could be the same child? The standing child looks so engaging, whereas the sitting one is very serious. But perhaps he was just having a bad day! I had thought the photo of the sitting child may have been taken in the late 1800s, partly because the child's coat looks so ornate - but that is sheer conjecture on my part.

Hello. I am hoping to date these two photographs, as well as identify the two children. They were in the possession of my grandfather Robert McDowell, who emigrated from Belfast in 1927. Neither photo has any clue to either child's identity.

The photography studio on the back of the sitting boy's photo is: J. Thompson (all that is visible).

The photography studio on the back of the standing child's photo is: R Clements Lyttle (Successor to Hembry) Belfast, Bangor and Londonderry.

Grateful for any advice. Thank you very much.
Jennie
