Can you date these Photographs

Hi All,
        Thanks for all your input. I do know one of the sons was lost at sea, therefore was added to pic and the one in the dress could be a son, they had seven sons. The young ladies in the Photographs I think are the wives and daughters of the older sons.
Cheers Willowmac.

I think both photographs were taken in studios. I will get the Photograph out and look on the back to see if there is any info. I think the man and woman seated in the 2 photographs are the same people, my Great Grandfather William Adams and his Wife Amelia Philpot. Do not know if any of the others match. I have some more Photographs of when they were younger. Its a pity where all these Photographs have gone from these studios, all that information lost what a pity.

Hi dont think that the two people seated in both photos are the same in both.If the first photo was taken approx ten years earlier than the second one they seemed to have gotten younger

Hi Annette,
                 Yes I can see what you mean, but the woman looks the same person do you think ?
Everybody looks so similar. The photograph was joined down his face in the first picture, that maybe why.

Hi willowmac
Yes agree that the women look similar in both but I think the woman in the first one has bigger hands.
The man is still puzzling me as I still think he is older in the first photo,eyes are droopier

Hi,
 If the woman is also a different person it could be that they are the Parents of William Adams who is in the second picture. They were John Adams and Bethia Ratcliff, do you think the age of the pictures could relate to this, if so the young man next to the one added could be William?. I will have to cross reference their ages to see if that works.
Cheers Willowmac.

Have to agree that while there are similarities they don't look exactly the same group.
The lady on the right of the 1st. picture has a married pose with her left hand extended
although it's difficult to see if there is a ring there,also she looks pregnant.So is she the
seated woman in the 2nd. picture and the man superimposed the seated man.
