Great Grandparents for colour please

Good morning, I have had a look at many of the wonderful photos here and wonder if it would be possible to give some colour to my great grandparents please.

Thank you. Meg :)

Hi Meg  ;)

Welcome to RootsChat! It is a great place to be! As long as you realise it is addictive  ;D ;D

What a beautiful photo! I am sure it will get lots of attention from our clever restorers!

Hello Judy and PaulaToo, thank you for the welcome. 

Yes, lots of very clever people here. 

A nice picture. I wonder if it was the christening of the baby. All dressed up for the occasion.

Meg :) :)
