Mowsehowse I think she is in her 20s and taken before she got married in 1908

You’re probably right! I have a wad of old photos that my Grandfather gave to my Mother and said these are my family. My Mother doesn’t know who many of them are and they all lived at the opposite end of the country to where my Grandfather settled. He was 99 when he died and he had 12 brothers and sisters. There are no names on the back bar one. Yet his photos of war pals had names on. I wish that I had asked him more. Ladyt

Jim1 how did you see that?! I never spotted it. At least I know now that she was over 26 years old when photo taken. Thank you, Ladyt

Hi again, Thought you may be interested Gadget. I have found her already. Its taken me all day but worth it. The lady in question is my Grandmother's elder Sister, Mary Jane Read born October 1882.
She married in 1908 so I'm guessing it was taken just before her marriage. Then I found her in the 1911 census with her husband and she was down as Jennie. Unfortunately, she died at 31 in 1914.
Anyway, thought I would let you know. Ladyt

Thank you Gadget and Jim1

The thing is there is a family resemblance there I don’t think it’s a family friend though it is possible. Do you think she was born 1870-1880? I can then start going through the females in the family around that time. Thanks, Ladyt

Thanks All for your input. It should be 3timesGrandmother. Going by the years put forward its not who I think it is, which is a shame. My GGGGrandmother was born 1784 and the only reason I thought it was her is that it has 'Jennie' in the bottom right corner. Her name is actually Jane but she was called Jenny and her marriage record also says Jenny. Are there any other names that could possibly be shortened - if that's the right word - to Jenny? I have lots of Mary Janes which I suppose could be Jenny at a push.  ??? Ladyt

Could someone give me an approximate year this photo was taken and also roughly the age of
the elegant lady who I think (I'm hoping) will be my GGGGrandmother.  Thank you, Ladyt
