Any ideas when this photo might have been taken, approx. from clothes ? I need to know which Grandad Hasker !
-
I would take a guess at around 1905-1910 but Jim will give you a more accurate date.

I would guess circa 1909

Thank you for the answers. That's very helpful.

All boy sopranos. Not old enough for anything else.

Thank you. Actually when I came to look at the Hasker FT, 1905 - 1910 didn't fit with any of the Hasker men, but looking online for boys clothes 1885 - 1900 did show similar outfit. So thinking John Joseph William Hasker would be about 12yrs in photo ? that did fit.

I was suggesting the date range as I did because I have a photo of my Grandfather who is wearing the same collar and tie arrangement and it was dated 1905/6

Yes in photos of my father, especially in school photos, he looks very smart in an Eton collar, and that was from about 1912. I have acquired a photo of the Grandad Hasker I think it is, at age 23 approx and I can see the likeness to the extend I am happy to say it is him in the school choir photo.
Thank you for all help.

The adult mans (choir teacher most likely?) very high lapels could be late 1890's though it could be an old suit he's wearing.
