Gosh, I can certainly see a strong family resemblence, LoneyBones

Precious photo of your mum Leonie, agree with Maggie on family likeness.

Lovely one of your mum too Maggie ...as seen on avatar 

I don't think there were any studio pics of my mum born 1916, or her 4 sisters  if any exist I've never seen them. I do have a couple of small pics of them as children playing outdoors though.

Aaaaaaaaah Maggie 

Your mum looks lke a china doll!!!

[LoneyBones]

Thank you.  
I love that photo of my Mum. Your Mum is a doll too Maggie.
Isn't it a shame that kids nowdays all look like little adverts for something, with logos on their T-shirts.
Then again....
Back then they all looked like girls in dresses and our generation asked why did boys wear dresses. Now we ask why do girls wear jeans and T-shirts.
HHmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.   I guess it goes full circle.

Thanks for the nice comments about my mum, although she didn't always look like this 

LoneyBones - when I look at your avatar - the family look is there in you also

Hi 

Here is my grandmother (the older girl) her siblings and parents, who were both born in 1865.

..... and my grandma and grandad shortly before they married in 1914.

oldtimer, that last one would be good for restoration board.  Someone would be able to crop it with a nice border and maybe even take the other jaikets oot completely.
It's a nice photo and would be worth it I think.

2 minutes and I'm no expert....kept it small because this isn't the appropriate thread.

I will take up your suggestion!!
