Complete - Thank you - Please improve GGG Grand Mother Florence
« on: Friday 15 February 08 12:29 GMT (UK) »
Hello Everyone,
This is Florence Hatherly 1870-1926, my husband’s GGG Grand Mother.
I am not sure when it was taken, I have been told that perhaps around 1900?
This was scanned from a small photo and so I am not sure what can be done?
I would be grateful for any improvement...
Thanking you for taking the time to look it over.
Cheers
Darlene

Hi Darlene

I've had a quick play but it would be better if you could rescan at 300 ppi as it's hard to make out the face.

Cheers

Hi Darlene, 1900 is about right, although it could be a bit later...the open neckline was popular from around 1910 or so, and the skirt looks like the hemline has started to come up a bit...I'd guess just a bit later than 1900 for those reasons....

Cheers,

Hello Caz,
Thank you so much, The GG Aunt that originally had this scanned for me has passed away and we are trying to work out where the photo's she had have gone?
If and when the mystery is solved i will get a better scan and re post...
Cheers

Hello China,
You are a wealth of information...
For some reason I always feel more connected to a photo when I have an approximate year?
Thank you so much for taking the time...
Cheers
