Quinlan--NYC--1900 tintype restoration
« on: Monday 29 April 24 18:16 BST (UK) »
Hello,
This is a treasured tintype of my great-grandmother, Sarah Quinlan, born Ireland 1847, and several of her children with her first grandchild in New York City in 1900. It's not in great shape. I would be very grateful for your restoration efforts.  Could you please leave the city background?  And the black and white or sepia?  I appreciate any help you can give.

Light touch (hope I have kept to the requested rules). Baby not easy to spot!

Thank you so much, Japeflakes. The faces are much clearer, especially the baby. Is there any way the blotches on the beam and sky above their heads, where the tin has flaked off the photo, can be fixed?  If not, no worries. I really appreciate your sharing your time and talent!  Thank you.
