I'm a bit undecided on this one, 1880's or 1890's, probably the former but all suggestions gratefully received.

Also can anyone discover his address. I know the photographer was born 1850, married 1891 and was in business till the early 1900's. His business was on Molesworth Street, Wadebridge. Though now pedestrianised, much of this street still exists and if I can find the address I can take a look where it was next time I am over there.

Also there is a faint name at the top which could be the surname of these kids. Truscott is my best guess.

Or maybe Prescott ?

I hadn't thought that early Carol, but you could be right.

For the name I was thinking Truscott but I think I see a loop on the first letter which might make it Prescott.

Early-mid 1880's I would say George.
You're unlikely to see this rustic setting in the 70's.
Also the children are in very much 1880's style clothing.

Cheers Jim, so it's probably a look on the 1881/1891 census. Though he might not have been living at the business address.

I didn't say but it's a Cabinet Card.

Had a look at the census & there's more Truscotts than you can throw a stick at.
Unlikely to be Prescott as that's a northern name.
