Dating family photos of Bella Cooper and some unknown relatives
« on: Monday 02 May 16 22:42 BST (UK) »
Could anyone help with dating these photos. I know who the woman is in pic 4. She (Bella) lived 1884 to 1959. These others are her relatives but I don't know if they're siblings or parents.

Thank you in advance
