World War One / Are these "Real" Uniforms
« on: Thursday 19 June 08 23:24 BST (UK) »
Hi, Can anyone help in the recognition of these Uniforms.
The girl on the right is my Great Aunt Rosie Turner. She was born around 1905. Middlesbrough.
The other girl Lizzie Ann McNaney was her half sister, born in 1912 also in Middlesbrough.
The girl/boy in the middle we don't know. We thought it may have been their brother/half brother George William Turner, but he died in France/Flanders 9 Apr 1917. He was in the K.O.Y.L.I.
The photo was taken at Services Studio, Middlesbrough.
The problem is they all look too young to have been in the War.
Was this a studio where you get dressed up like soldiers or nurses?
Close up of the cap badge, not to clear though.
Thank you. look forward to receiving your thoughts.
