Do these 2 ladies look like the same person?
« on: Monday 24 April 06 21:22 BST (UK) »
One has the annotation of "mother" in my grandmothers album so that would make her Elsie Anderson.
The other pic has Uncle Steve and Auntie Gladys" underneath.

They look the same, have the same shirt on?

I'm not aware that Elsie has a sister called Gladys ???

I would say the blouse is not the same. On the one the collar has a more square corner than the other.  Also the buttons on one could be with holes and the other the type with the "hole" moulded on the back.  The shoulder gathers look different too with one with more defined pleats and the other just gathers.  The one lady has more pointed plucked eyebrows near her nose too, so the photos are not taken at the same time.  They could be the same person or sisters.

Unfortunately having hit the reply button the photos are not visible so I can't say which feature is on which photo!

I am not sure that is any help!

The vital measurements on the face are not quite the same.  I would say that they are different people but related.

It's hard when they are being viewed at slightly different angles but they look as if they are the same person to me.

Definitely not the same person, look at the eyebrows!Different shape, different length. I would say they are related but not the same person.
