Mabel and George - newly weds
« on: Tuesday 12 June 07 22:17 BST (UK) »
Hi all,

Here is Mabel Burgess and George Proctor, my granny and grandad...I think it was taken not long after they married in 1917. I don't remember my grandad as he died when I was just about a year old. I'd love it if you could clean it up a bit for me  :)

Thanks
Elaine

I think she's just got her best foot forward Jim.

Elaine, Is that a maternity dress she's wearing?
