Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Help with dating photograph taken in Knockholt, Kent please
« on: Wednesday 15 April 20 16:16 BST (UK) »
Hi, another photograph from my dad's collection of which he has no idea who the people are, but is pretty sure that they are family, and that it was taken in Knockholt, Kent.
Would anybody kindly be able to date the photograph, and or possible ages of the people? Also any clues to their relationship from the posing of the photograph?
Many thanks,
Matt

Thanks Carol.
Ann was also the closet sibling in age to my dad's grandad as well, which may explain why he had the photograph. Possibly!!

Apologies for the long post......
Thank you all so much for your efforts with this picture! I've learned so much more about these people than I could have ever imagined.
I posted it originally to try to establish the age of the woman on the far right. I knew that the Mother in the picture was my 2nd great Aunt, and I knew that she had 3 sons and 3 daughters, but the woman on the right looked too old to me to be her daughter; shows what I know!! With you brilliant people having pretty much confirmed her age now, it brings me full circle to the reason for this post!
I was given a box of old photographs by my father a few years ago, and there were a few of people that he didn't know who they were; so I've made it my mission to try to find out for him.
I posted a picture on here for dating around 5 years ago, of who I thought at the time could possibly be my Great Great Grandmother, but the dating from people on here combined with her age at the time didn't fit together, and someone suggested did she have a daughter of the right age for the photograph date. Well, Ann Ellen (mother in this picture) was her daughter and fitted in with the dates/ages suggested. Looking now at the 2 pictures side by side there is (in my biased hopeful mind), a resemblance. But strangely more so between the daughter on the right and the original photograph!
Is it possible/acceptable on here to post a link back to the original photo thread to get an unbiased opinion from someone here?
Many thanks again

Thanks again for all of your help.
The screenshot is from a WW1 Military record for the eldest son in the photograph - Individuals entitled to the Victory medal/British War medal, the page is date stamped Hounslow 1920. Could it be that he was in a reserve battalion of the East Surrey Regiment, hence the uniform being in that style?
Thanks again for your skills in putting ages to these people, it's really helping me in trying to piece everything together!

Wow, thank you all for your replies, it's much appreciated.
In 1910 their ages would be;
Mother - 40
Father - 37
Sons - 3,6,10
Daughters - 9,12,14
Could it possibly be 5 years or so later C1915?
Ruskie - Ann Ellen was born in 1870, and the eldest daughter Grace in 1896.
Thanks again

Hi, would anyone be so kind as to have a go at dating this photograph for me please?
My relative, Ann Ellen Clarke (Chilton) is front right of the photo. She had 3 daughters and 3 sons, I was wondering if these could be them all? The lady on the far right looks a bit old to be her daughter to me?
There were 3-4 years between each of the boys, and each of the girls.
Any help with approximate ages would be great too!
Many thanks in advance,
Matt
