Date and age for Irish Granny or Great Granny
« on: Friday 15 August 25 21:46 BST (UK) »
Hi. Could any of the very knowledgeable people here suggest an approx date for the photograph and an approximate age for the girl/woman. Would appreciate a tidy up as well. Thanks

Not an expert at dating but, to start this one off, I think it's in the style of the Gibson Girls, so late 1890s to 1900s; perhaps someone born 1880s.

Maybe as old as 30 or late 20's.  The eyes look wise like a school teacher.

Thanks for a lovely tidy up Peter. Much appreciated.
Thanks also for suggestions for date and age. Granny was born mid 1890s and great granny mid 1860s so possibly picture isn't of either.
