I have a very similar photo of my Uncle Jack - nice bloke - about 1895.

Did I get in intime?

 ???  Hi Collette, yes you got me, incompetent, illitriate, can't see further than what's on the page.  Promise I'll buck-up in future.  My excuse?  None - I was OK when it was DOS - wordperfect, cardbox, supercalc etc etc.  15 years later I re-enter the World I knew so well and they've changed it.  Wouldn't you know it?

Thanks for that, confirmed what I thought.  Still a little puzzled by the family group I'm looking at.  Mother being 55 and 3 nurse children under 5?  Hmmm.  Perhaps I'm judging by present day standards.

Thanks again.

The shoes should be a clue and the chair is also quite special.  1880 my guess.
