Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Birthday Card for dating
« on: Sunday 06 May 12 19:35 BST (UK)  »
My apologies if I have posted this in the wrong place - I am not too sure if this really counts as a photograph.  The picture is of a birthday card given to my great grandmother by my great grandfather.  They were married in 1907 and he died in 1929, so I am wondering when during that timescale the card dates from.  Many thanks for any help!

Occupation Interests / Professional Footballer Query - For Gadget
« on: Tuesday 01 March 11 21:40 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to find out some more information about my Great Grandfather William Smith who was a professional footballer.  He has a Wikipaedia entry under the name Bill Smith (Edwardian Footballer). He played for Brentford (1912-13), Southampton (1913-14), and Halifax Town (1914-15).  I'm really trying to track down his birth, but there are lots of William Smith's around!  I know that he had died by 1940 when my nan and grandad married. 

My nan had William's signing on papers for Southampton, but she died in 1983, and my dad has no idea where they went after that!

I'd be grateful for any help.
