My Mother's Micallef Family Photo
« on: Tuesday 06 June 17 12:40 BST (UK) »
Hi, I have this old photograph of my grandparents with my mother and
her brother and younger sister, who all are deceased. My mother is the
little girl in the black dress, I would assume she would be about 2
years old and to give you an idea of the age of the photo she was born in
November 16th 1903 my auntie is the little baby on my grandmothers
lap and the boy was my mothers brother. The Photo was taken in
Valletta, Malta. My mothers maiden name was Micallef. If my guess
is right I would say the photo was taken sometime in 1905. I'm sorry I
do not have another better quality photo and I'm sure this will be one of
your greater challenges to restore. I would love to have this restored
to close to original as possible. Thank You Arthur

I just cannot believe how quick and such a good job was done, it was in such bad condition, I thought it would be impossible to fix. Thank very much. my brothers and sisters will be so happy.
