London Photographs - Wright Family
« on: Wednesday 22 April 20 07:11 BST (UK) »
This is a real long shot, but I have a couple of photos here I am trying to guess the age on.



I have done some research for this one and it seems to be in front of the "Statue of Havelock" in Trafalgar Square. I believe the boy is either Edward, Frederick or Arthur Wright. They were born in 1902, 1904 and 1908 respectively. I am just guessing but this photo might be in the 1910's due to the uniform. Then again it might be from WWII and I am just clueless  :)



This photo was found in my great grandfathers belongings when he died, they might be his parents but not sure

I understand this may not be possible, but educated guesses are welcome :)

Photos are almost certainly from London and surrounding areas.

The one in Trafalgar Square is definitely either 1940's or (possibly) late 1930's.

Neat, thanks
My family seemed to think the first image was from WWI, but I guess that just shows how much we know  ;D
