You lot are just amazing.

Many thanks to all who worked on this picture.  I am amazed.  It was torn in half...... originally a full length photo.... and ripped in the middle as you could see.  I have no idea what colour, if any, would have been worn here. Did wonder if they were all in black.   All I know is who they are......

The older lady at the front is my Gr Grandmother Hannah BUTTERWORTH nee BROWN, and she is with her daughters, L to R,  Sarah Alice, Mary Jane Elizabeth and Hannah.  My grandfather was the youngest child of Thomas Booth and Hannah BUTTERWORTH.

After I had scanned this photo, I pulled it up onto the computer screen and enlarged it, and got my first really good look at it.  My great aunt Hannah ( back right ) has been reborn in one of my cousins..... it's a bit eerie actually.  Looking for a photo of said cousin to scan and compare.

I more than like it ... I love it .

Many many thanks. Never even thought about colour for these ladies, just repair.  BUT it's fantastic.

Amazing as usual

Hi Karenlee

I am really late with this, I haven't been able to get to it, but didn't want to miss such a great pic.....  I hope you like it.  I had to make it really small to repost, so if you need a larger version, please let me know

Cheers

Amazing.

Do either Carolyn or Lones object if I print their beautiful colour photos out to hang on my wall with the rest of the family??
