Two photos - is this the same man?

[cloviscat]

This conversation is three years old, but that's nothing when it comes to family history quests, and I finally have a definitive answer!
I'm now in contact with a cousin from a different branch. She too had a (better) copy of the LHS photo (1), which she knew was Our Man. But she had another picture, also known to be him (3). This photo is *identical* in setting to my one with the hat (2) - taken in the same room - and it's clearly the same man in that he is wearing the same uniform right down to the identical creases and puckers in the clothing - the photos can only have been have been taken minutes apart.
So - 1 and 3 are our man, and 2 and 3 are the same man, so 1 and 2 must, after all, be the same man!
Case closed

hi just a thought  why not photocopy the picture you posted of the 2 of them together and try and copy the hat onto the hatless one?might give you a better resemblance.

I too, go with the majority in that I think it is the same man . It's the nose and mouth.
