I'm sorry this photo is very faint but I'd be grateful for your opinions on the date. I have two possible families (brothers who both had two girls and then two boys) but a date will probably sort out which group it is.

I would say the WWI period, Jane.

Thank you - I was thinking that 1912 would fit with one family so that isn't far out.

Hello Jane
I think I would go a lttle earlier around 1908.

The children I'm thinking it most likely to be were born 1900, 1902, 1905 and 1908. Do you think that fits.

Mothers dress style is a little dated for 1912 but looking at the children it would have to be 1911/12.
