Regarding the photo I offered: I only have what you would call family snaps, so possibly no use?angiejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17719849201543283523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4599702957095945938.post-58982515648595688572011-12-10T20:21:37.812+13:002011-12-10T20:21:37.812+13:00Hi angiejoy, and thank you very much for your resp...Hi angiejoy, and thank you very much for your response.

I knew my great grandfather was a photographer, which bought me to your site, which confirmed my findings and gave me so much more information. So, 'Somebody's Granmother' is infact mine - great, great grandmother, even! I fear that I see a family resemblance. My grandmother was frighteningly stern looking and lived up to her looks! If someone let's me know how I'll send a photo.angiejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17719849201543283523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4599702957095945938.post-42120453816956248492011-04-13T11:59:43.806+12:002011-04-13T11:59:43.806+12:00I've added an enlargement of the photograph sh...I've added an enlargement of the photograph showing her face, and revealing perhaps a little more to the story.Brett Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07706734864792449845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4599702957095945938.post-82014784576545264462011-04-13T04:53:45.141+12:002011-04-13T04:53:45.141+12:00She doesn't look mean, just old and tired.
