Other Countries / Persia now Iran - Agnes Hick age 42 in 1929
« on: Monday 24 May 21 20:54 BST (UK)  »
Any suggestions as to why Agnes Hick sailed from Falmouth, Cornwall to Abadan, in then Persia?  To my knowledge there was no family connections there, her parents had died, and both her brothers had also died in 1915 and 1916.  I'd be very grateful for your ideas.

Well done, Lindy.  You're so right, you have to keep trying.  As someone said to me once, it's all there somewhere, you just have to keep looking.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Restore/improve 1910 photo Morro Velho Engineers

Help please from you very talented Rootschatters.  This photo I believe is of my grandfather and his colleagues employed by the SJDR British owned gold mine in Morro Velho, Brazil in 1910.  The photo is so very fragile.  Any improvement is very much appreciated.

Mine says "to be completed on Sunday the 21st March 2021" not the 31st March.

Problem adding the other photo, sorry.  Eliza was 50 when died, so it is just possible it is a photo of her.  Do you see a similarity of the eyes on the 3 photos, please?

Thank you so much Carol for your reply.  I attach the reverse however no clues there.  I was hoping it was early 1870's as Eliza died in 1879.  Back to the drawing board....
