Enjoying the old photo's  ;)

I think this may be my eldest always thought it was my great grandmother born 1858 died 1933 but speaking to my elderly uncle at the weekend he has thrown some doubt on it because he does not remember her it such "old fashioned" clothes!

Is anyone able to date the picture?
I am now wondering if it is my great grandfather's mother born 1826 who also lived in Worthing?

Thanks for the link Judy,

I agree she does look a character - wish I knew for certain who she was  ???

Hi Crystal  ;)

Have you tried posting her on to the Restoration Board and asking the experts for their advice on a date? Might be worth a try  :D

Best wishes, Judy :-))

Here is one of my photos - some albums came to light at a family reunion containing photographs from the 1860's and 1870's.  This one is labelled (yes, they were labelled as well!) as being of my 3xggrandmother Alice Pennell nee Birchall who died in 1861 - I've attached a picture of the back as well, perhaps the experts on the list could confirm or deny the possibility...... :)

If any of you do decide to post on the restoration board, you will need to rename the image first.
