Hi Lones

I do not usually comment on posts put just thought I would make an observation. Both myself and my wife have looked at these pictures quite a few times and although it seems quite obvious that 2 and 4 are indeed the same person and that all of them have a similar look, could it be possible that number 3 is another sister!!!!!

Number 3 seems to be a cross between 1 and 2. Hope I am not confusing things further, it is just my opinion.

Kind Regards
Brian

Hi Brian  :)

Thank you for your opinion and yes it is possible, there is the elusive Adeline Jesse or Auntie Jess as she was known.  I have no pictures of her at all, but I did believe she had dark hair, but that could be unture...  Sadly I don't know if anyone still alive actually knew her so I can't ask anyone.   I have other pics that I received this week and I was hoping she was one of those, but you could be right. 

I shall never be able to be really sure, unless the pic turns up agian with another relative and is nicely labeled on the back.  The fact that this one has so many names crossed off was the reason I didn't take their word for it...  Someone was confused..  :) and now they have confused me  ::)

Thanks again for your input, I really do appreciate it

Warm regards

Hi Lones,

My reasons for my pick is shape of eyes, set of eyes, tip of nose and distance of nose to lips.  Had another look and still see her the same way.

Thanks for your opinion Jam

It looks like I still have a mystery on my hands, lots of different opinions and nothing really conclusive

Cheers for your time
