hi everyone,
Sorry but I'm back again with another little gem in need of dating and maybe a bit of restoration!
It is taken by the River Trent at the Toll house between Willington and Repton in Derbyshire.
As always any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Mel

I think around 1910.Mother & daughter perhaps.

Hi One from me.
This is a low 200dpi scan so a lot of the details were lost. If you can rescan it at a higher resolution you will get better results.

About 1910 or so would be my guess as well.

Hi Mel
The photo shows my grandmother and possibly one of my aunts.
I beleive my father was the first to born in the ex toll house about 1898

Hi
Am I right in assuming you are connected to the Bennett family then? My ex-husbands great grandmother was Ada Mary Bennett born 1893 in Willington, daughter of George Sidney Bennett and Elizabeth Hackett.

Hi Mel
My father was Richard William Bennett, one of about 10 children, I would be interested to know any more info you have on the Benntt family as I am putting together a family tree on Genes Reunited

Hi Keith,
I do still have some Bennett information, including a photo of George and Elizabeth.
I will try and send you a personal message with my email address.
Kind regards
Mel
