Title: Date of photo and approximate age of lady wearing at hat?
Post by: mysteries on Monday 20 November 17 03:18 GMT (UK)

Hello All

Was wondering if anyone was able to pinpoint when this photo was taken, and the approximate age of the lady in the photo?

Unfortunately, I have no idea where the photo might have been taken, however, as it was found in an old box of photos in Australia, perhaps it may have been taken here.

Regards
Meg

1890's & probably late at around 1896 but could be into the very early 1900's but not by much.
I would venture early 20's & I don't detect a wedding ring.

I would say about 30 and slightly older photo than 1900's.

I agree with Jim...on both date and age.

Thank you all so much.

That gives me some clues, but now gives me more candidates as to who it might be than originally thought lol.

I would say mid to late 20's. She is very trim even with a corset!
