Hi Bethan, could I put the date just a little later than 1910? Both gents are wearing the shorter collar that came into style around 1912ish.
The lady is very well turned out in a suffragette suit (a fashion, not necessarily a political statement) that came out in 1910 and lasted till around 1915.
Cheers,
China

Hi China you could be correct with the date because their first child was born in 1913, they went on to have 11 more so I don't think she was big on womens rights

Have you found the marriage? There are an awful lot of Thomas Howells marrying in Wales around that time :P
Do you know Elizabeth's maiden name?

Hi China, I have traced the family back to the 1850s but was recently given this photo by a cousin, as it is the only one I have of my grandparents I was hoping someone could clean it up for me
