Hi Dave, the writing on the back of your photo is really difficult to read. Could it be an address at the bottom? I have found 23 North Court in Thornton Cleveleys, Lancashire or 23 North Crescent in Featherstone, Wolverhampton or Clipstone, Mansfield or Durham or Easington, Peterlee or Washington, Tyne and Wear. Do any of these addresses mean anything to you? Here is my version of the photo.
Bownass - Lancashire & Westmorland
Hoggarth - Lancashire & Westmorland
Jackson- Lancaster
Waller - Dent, Yorkshire dales
Omerod - Lancashire
Redburn - Lancashire
Evans - Hereford

Nice one John...It looks like the photographer's notes for the hand colouring for the artist. The surname and address of the sitter...possibly..Ellis....73 or 23, North Cammish/Carnish ?
For a date I would say 1940s or 50s. I have a 1950s hand tinted photo that looks very similar. It could have been a head and shoulders shot taken from a group photo.

Not certain but it could be "Ellis"...whatever it says, I believe it to be the surname then the address of the sitter. He may just be a family friend rather than a relative. Still not sure whether the number is 73 or 23  ::)
