Date year of Photo Please

[JacknSof]

Attached Photo is believed to be of the Kennedy family. Photo taken by W.E.Perrour, Longreach,
( Qld. Aus). The male subject in the middle of the back row is believed to be my wife's Grandfather*.
Info we have on the family is; Father - Robert b1859, Mary, 1957, Children - Andrew 1886, Mary 1888, Robert 1890, James* 11892, William 1896.
The second young female is a mystery, perhaps a wife or another daughter that we are unaware of?
The photo is on 2-3mm cardboard with small radius corners. There is no other info on the front or back.
Any help would appreciated.

Hi...It would be a good idea to post a scan of the back including the corners if you have the original as it is a dating aid.

Thank you Jim and Carol for your prompt replies.
Jim, what do you base your estimate on? Ages of subjects or clothing.
Carol, I can not scan at the moment as my printer has run out of ink and will not let me do anything even though only want to scan not print. Will scan and post  in a few days.
Kind regards.

Agree with Jim, around 1912ish. We use clothing and photo styles to date, and also any printing on the back of the photo to date...although there won't be anything on the back of this one.. We also use photographer information.

But mostly we use clothing style.

If you have any more photos to date, could you please make a larger scan as this is a bit hard to see

Cheers,

Mostly in this one it was the hairstyles of the 2 women either side which was a short lived style from around 1912.
