Unknown lady Broadway in Worcestershire
« on: Friday 18 September 20 20:46 BST (UK) »
Hello - looking for opinions for dates on this photograph recently found by a relative. (I only have this scan, I have not seen the original myself.) It was found in a prayer book that was published in 1851, alongside a prayer card (Catholic?) of a man who died in 1866 but whose connection to the family we have not been able to establish. The book appears to be signed by the finder's great-grandmother, who lived 1854-1910. The family lived at Broadway in Worcestershire. I understand there are no photographer's details on the picture. Hoping that a date may help narrow down whether this picture is contemporary with when the book's apparent owner was a young woman, or whether it's more likely to be someone from a different generation.
Many thanks
Richard.

This is 1860's & probably mid-late decade.
She looks around 40.

Thank you all - if this is mid - late 1860s then perhaps it's the book's owner's mother, Mary Dingley Lies, who lived 1822-1915 and therefore would have been in her forties in the 1860s.
Many thanks
Richard.

Sounds like a possibility.
How about the mother of the woman who signed it.

Yes, I think we're leaning towards there being a fair chance it's Mary Dingley Lies (1821-1915), who was the mother of Ann Keyte (later Haines, 1854-1910) whose name appears in the book.
