Title: Anthony Trew 1825 Morden Dorset for colour and restore please
Post by: suecrilly on Sunday 06 March 16 14:54 GMT (UK)

Please could you restore and colour this wonderful old photo

I believe it could be Anthony Trew born 1825 in Morden Dorset. He died in 1896
In your opinion am I about right that this photo could have been taken late 1880's or early 1890's ?

Many thanks once again for your time and expertise xx

Not 1880's & I have to say doesn't even look 1890's either.
The lady is dressed in a distinctive Edwardian outfit.
Can we see all of it & the back in order to ascertain exactly what we're looking at.

Hi Jim - thanks for the reply. I think I may have thought this was the correct family member, however it is more likely to be his son George Trew Dorset
I will try and get a copy of the reverse
Many thanks
Sue

Yes. think of all the dust it will hold and all those ornaments and patterns. It makes it an interesting project though.

This seems to tie in with them being George and Cecelia from daughters wedding photo.
