Dating Kelly family Portrait and photograph
« on: Monday 22 May 23 21:51 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I am trying to help a family member identify the people in these two images, both are of the Kelly family of South Shields in the 1800s, I am hoping perhaps that someone might perhaps narrow down the dates for us so we can identify the sitters? Apologies for the quality, unfortunately he does not have access to the original pictures just these photographs of them. Hoping someone might be able to help us.

Many thanks for reading, all the best for the week,

Dan

Do you have the backs to shows as there is information that will help us to date them. I think the second image is from the 1850s.

1st. one is 1870's. The Jabot is a bit of a giveaway.
Agree the 2nd. is 1850's/60's.

Thanks for the replies, I haven’t the backs, these are photos of the originals taken years ago, we are just trying to narrow down who in the family they might be, suggestions really help so thank you!

Also the ear ring present which I thought was unusual in mine. Thanks everyone, this really helps.
