Great Grandparents Robert and Jenny Patton Co Antrim late 19c
« on: Wednesday 20 September 23 10:13 BST (UK) »
Found a photo of an original in my late Dad’s collection showing his Great Parents Robert and Jenny Patton (other versions in records e.g. Jinny, Jenney) and it would be great to see restoration and interpretation from the incredibly talented photo restorers on this site.

They lived in County Antrim near Clough.

The photo is likely late 19c with an unqualified guess 1880 to 1890?

The forefinger on Robert’s left hand looks a bit strange but not sure if this is due to the lighting or maybe as a result of injury? (both he and Jenny were weavers).

Thank you so much!
