Title: Two ladies by the TrentBridge can you help date them?
Post by: FamilyBDTC on Friday 05 September 08 21:41 BST (UK)

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

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

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 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
