Is this old lady in Irish national dress?
« on: Friday 05 February 10 12:09 GMT (UK) »
I am attaching a photo.  Someone on this site (the restoration and dating area of Roots) suggested that the lady was perhaps wearing Scottish National Dress.  I don't think that's likely as we have no Scottish people in the family and I have been told that she is definitely a direct ancestor of granny or grandfather.  If I can determine whether or not the dress is not typically English then it will help with which side of the family she's from!

Thank you
