Margaret/Bob and Meg
« on: Friday 08 June 07 21:09 BST (UK) »
Hello I wonder if anyone can do anything with these two photos?  The small one was taken in 1928 and only says "Meg". If it is the same lady the couple would be very early 1900's but she is referred to as Margaret on that one. 
Anyone think it is the same lady?

Hi Shebe  :)

I think both photos are from around the same time period - the 1920s - and it certainly looks like the same lady...the hair is pretty distinctive!

Here's the other one.  I also think it's the same lady.
