 Hi all,

 Please can anyone help identify these two uniforms.
 These are cropped images from a wedding group photo that has been dated as c.1900.

      Thanks

 Hi gortonboy,
  Thanks for the quick reply (and for giving me the chance to correct my spelling mistake before too many people saw it) :) 

 Now to look up what a petty officer is.

       Thanks again
