Rescued - Gertrude Julia Warwick
« on: Saturday 02 March 13 14:43 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

I found Gertrude in a box of photos on a stall at a craft fair and thought of you RootsChat people. I would love to give her a good home with a descendant if we could find one.

What is the first name in pencil ? Warwick and a date of Aug 71 - and a 6 in brackets, possibly age 6? Might this mean she was born in Aug 71 or the photo was taken then when she was 6, so born in 1865? The name Gertrude Julia Warwick looks like it has been added later.
We almost need to put this on the photo board for dating too.
