Clean up sepia photo of my Grannie, Barbara Gentleman Smith Elgin c1916
« on: Sunday 26 November 23 07:34 GMT (UK) »
It would be wonderful to have this sepia photo of my Grannie tidied up (thank you to jmagarac for kindly size reducing).

It shows her with three of my late Mum’s siblings Johnnie, Doddie and Bessie.

They stayed in Elgin.From the children’s ages I’m guessing the photo is c 1916.

Many thanks in anticipation.
