Please date these photos
« on: Sunday 26 December 10 18:21 GMT (UK) »
I have posted below four photos which i would love to have an approximate date for. The first two feature my great grandmother,the third my great grandparents and the fourth my grandmother.

Apologies for the poor quality of the photos. I don't have access to the originals and these were hastily taken shots made for reference purposes.

Any assistance with the dating would be, as always, very much appreciated.
many thanks now
Rob

Hard to see but in p4 my grandmother is wearing her engagenment ring and as she married in November 1923,i would say you are spot with your p4 dates as i'm sure you are with the other dates.

Many thanks Jim for your help.

Just to provide additional clues regarding ages, the subjects in the photos are:

p1 (left) Frances Baker born 1884

p2 Frances Brown (nee Baker....married 1901) born 1884

p3 Frances and Joseph Brown (born 1875)

p4 Grace Spinks (born 1903)
