First cousin once removed
« on: Thursday 13 June 13 11:10 BST (UK) »
I have recently obtained this image from a memorial card of a relative killed in France in 1915.  I would be grateful if some contributor could kindly enhance it, and possibly colour?

Best wishes,

Mia Cara, Stevew101, Mike in Cumbria,
Thanks very much for your renditions.  I can certainly get a better idea of what the nineteen year old looked like in his uniform now.  Thanks again,

Terry H,

Thanks you very much for those two.  You have managed to despeckle the image superbly, without losing the definition.  Thank you.

Best wishes,
