Title: Restoration of Old Photo - Caffrey Family, Ireland
Post by: Runner55 on Friday 23 August 24 19:00 BST (UK)

Hi Rootschatters

I have here a great old photo I was recently given by a relative.  It's of my 2 x great aunt, Kate Caffrey, her husband Patrick, and their family in Dublin, Ireland circa late 1800s.

I love this photo but it appears to have some smears across it and I wondered if anyone might be able to work some magic to clean the image up somehow.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Regards and thanking you in advance.

I gave it a go and sadly this is the best I could do with your photo.

Sammy.
