What a fantastic photo. Do you have a date and place for this?

Notice her swollen knuckles...this is likely from rheumatoid arthritis, and even today there's no sure cure for the condition... :-\

Great great gran is pictured here in the 1930's I think.

Many thanks to Terry and Irene.

Beautiful colouring ladies  :o :o :o

She certainly looks like a lady who has had to work hard all her life. A really lovely picture.

Best wishes, Judy :-))
