Title: Can you date this photo of Ada Shooter?
Post by: Star_boy123 on Sunday 16 March 14 15:35 GMT (UK)
Can anyone date this picture of my Great Grandmother Ada and her friend? My Great Grandmother is the one standing in the picture.

I would say your great grandmother, standing, is in her late teens or early twenties in the photo.

Does that help with dating?

Good evening,

Jim, you beat me to it while I checked Grandmothers photo's. I was going to say 1915/1925 going by her and her sisters mode of dress at that time.
