I don't know who this lady is. The photograph was found amongst other belonging to my paternal grandparents.

I am guessing who this is, it was also found in the collection of photographs belonging to my paternal grandparents. I would like to think that the old lady was my 3 x great grandmother Ann Yates nee Tomlinson 1801-1886.
I believe the younger woman was her daughter Emma who had three illegitimate sons, Thomas, John and Effingham. The man would then be Emma's brother Benjamin who never married.

No nothing at all Shona. I should have added that probably the photo was taken post 1905 as she looks to be in mourning dress and that's when she was widowed.

I reckon it's a photo of her husband. I posted a wedding group in the last lot of pics taken 1903. Hubby was on that. White mutton chop whiskers.

I don't have the originals, my aunt does. I struggled to get her to lend them to me to scan.
