This is my Great Grandmother Sarah Bridgewater. Would love a date on this pic....esp as I notice she is wearing a wedding band and I have never been able to trace a marriage to the three gentlemen she lived with. Hmmmmm....

Hi Bridgewater..welcome to the board....I can't help with a date but here's quick tidy.

My Pleasure ;)...Hope to see more from you but if you could scan at a resolutinon of 300dpi that would give a better result...but....I realise you may not have the original.....

There's not much here that's dateable but I would suggest 1910-14.
Is this a postcard?

Unfortunately the copy I have is not good. I have one which is on a large board and crumbling and a smaller version which is mounted onto an oval tin shape. Neither are fantastic.
Unfortunately my scanner is not playing at the moment. As soon as it does I will attempt to re-scan.
Thx to you all

Which one are we looking at,the one on tin or the one on board.Forget that for the moment,Is the one on tin a mirror image of this?

Hi again..the picture on the tin backing is the same way round as the original I posted. i.e, showing left hand on table.
-
Also remembered that originally I took the scan from the one on the tin. Delicately prized off and flattened for the scan. I guess thats what the oval shape is around the picture.
