Trying to date and name,
I have, what i believe to be two photos with my great Grandparents in, though taken at different times. The first also has 2 great Aunts , though i cannot work out which two there were 6 all born within quite a short timespan, so am guestimating around 1895'ish.
The elder couple is their parents ( my great granparents) Henry Wright b1869, and Alice b 1868. The difficulty i have is the second photo, am i right in stating this is them again (ggrandparents) but an earlier photo? and if so, can a rough date be placed?. Oh and if it's not them, i am stumped by who is in the second photo!

Without any dates for the indviduals I would have put the first picture as no later than 1923 and probably closer to the end of WW1. The other one I would put at about 1912ish. However, I'm not very confident with photo dating!

That's a great help anyway.. the other question is of course, are they the same people?

Same people.
The car photo I would put pre WW1, purely because of the ladies' hats - the cloche had come in by about 1920, I think. The other photo, late 1890s to early 1910s - the man's wingtipped collar. I actually think the two photos were taken not many years apart, say maybe 5? OC

I see the cloche hat came in earlier than I thought. I had read about 923 before, but now I see 1916 being a more common date. So, before 1916 for the first photo. I still think the other photo is a bit later than OC says, but agree the photos could be as little as five years apart. Mum has aged more than dad has.
