Blay Family
« on: Saturday 23 May 20 11:20 BST (UK) »
Can someone please help me these are pictures of my husbands family from Berkshire.  The one of the couple are Ellen Shurvin and Alfred Blay.  The second one is of Ellen with her family.  The third one Elsie Blay.  I would like to know if someone can date these pictures and also is it possible to get some clarity with the faces please.  They  appear rather dark.

Thank you for your assistance

For best results either post a copy with more pixels i.e. dots per square inch, aka dpi OR, scan just the head and shoulders at a higher resolution.  Look at this effort and see the pixels .. not enough to improve the original by much, cheers, Ian
