Please restore this family (no colour needed!)
« on: Monday 25 February 08 18:40 GMT (UK) »
Hi all -

Please can you geniuses do something with this lovely family?  This is a very faded photo, taken I think around 1907, of my Great Grandparents and some of their children, with their first grandchild.  My Mum's cousin found this for me, and she'd love to see it restored - but she doesn't want any colour on it - hope that's OK  :)

Thanks
Jaylay
