Title: Annapolis USA - old lady
Post by: bruceward51 on Monday 22 January 24 01:46 GMT (UK)

Can anyone help with an approximate date for this photo please. I believe this lady is from an Irish family that emigrated to the USA around 1850. The photo came from an old album from another branch of the same family who came to Australia.
A date will hopefully help be identify which member of the family this is.
The loaded image comprises both sides of the same photo.
Thanks
Bruce Ward

There are several advertisements in the Annapolis papers between 1891-1893 for H Sharfer at 6 Main Street.

Thanks - On that basis, my best guess is Elizabeth Redmond nee Dempsey who died in 1900.
