Date this photo please
« on: Monday 20 August 12 11:14 BST (UK) »
Hi
I've just received a family photo and we are not sure who they are maybe a date might give a clue. The two young people in the photo could they be brother and sister or married. I don't know what her hand on his shoulder signifies.

The only clue we have is the name 'Brown' on the back of the photo and the number 6. My great grandmother was Catherine Brown and was born in 1891.

Thanks

Colin

Hi
I don't have the original but I can email my cousin to see if she can scan it and send to me.

1900's & just about any time up to about 1908..She's not showing a wedding ring & they have similar mouths & eyes,so it looks like sister,brother & mother.

thanks Jim.

Here's the back of the photo but it might be too small.
