Sorry - I've just read the text and see that Thomas was born 1854.

Thomas 1854
Michael 1857
Patrick 1858.

The text also refers to the photo as Mary Anne with the middle son. Thus, it seems that the photo can't be much earlier that 1866-8.

That sums it up nicely Gadget, having all the facts makes a big difference to the outcome but to be fair, Shamrockgirl never asked for a date

No but it was brought up early on and the discussion turned to  dating.  As Wiggy says, she mentioned it in her first reply.  I came in yesterday, originally about the hat and, by then, the the dating  seemed to have been the primary topic.
