Title: My mum's mum
Post by: allotment on Tuesday 29 January 13 23:08 GMT (UK)
I absolutely love these pictures of my mum's mum. A beautiful woman but the photos themselves are so good. She died in 1941 when my mum was 12 years old. That is why I have never thought of her as my grandma. One photo shows her in mourning looking at a photo of her first husband who drowned in 1919 after surviving WW1 still in the army but on a night out.

The scanned images are all that I have at this time and like I say I love them but is it possible please for somebody just to remove the creases? Nothing else please just the creases . Apologies that there are three and if the quality is not right but it's all that I have.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Thank you Carol they are great.

No family connection with my own Broughton surname from Cheshire in the late 1700s? Coincidently my next door neighbour and good friend is a Borrill from Lincolnshire.
