I find this photo charming and love the wonderful hats. I am sorry the quality is not good but I only have a photo-copy and not the original. I had lots of trouble re-sizing it and trying to keep the proportions. Oh, the picture was taken in 1914.

It is a lovely picture. I also love the wonderful hats, they must have been very colorful. you are lucky to have a picture like this. God Bless
Great photo! you did a grand job. I do like to see old family piccies. I have a daguerratype (I hope I spelled that right!) It was taken around 1880, of my patrenal grandfather and his parents and sister. He was about 3yrs old at the time. Its a shame it cant be scanned so I could publish it but its not in very good condition now. Your photo is really great though, keep them coming ! Sandra
hey j, love that old photo, and the rest of the great arts. thanx again for all your help...r
absolutely fabulous picture!!
What a charming picture. I love old family photos. Pennie
You did well with that....gold star sent. Those hats are the first thing that hit you ain't they. Have had a virtual tour of life in the past, it's been great.
Third line down on the left, inbetween two ladies with hats, one white and one black with a large feather.............he looks just like Edward, the one that abdicated. They really knew how to do flowers in those days. Just lovely. xxR.
It is a fabulous picture, Jeanette. Actually, the graininess looks appropriate for it's age. Old family photos like this are what keep everyone alive to the younger generations. Saddly, I have very few pictures of earlier members of my family. I feel like my daughter is getting cheated out of her legacy. Funny, thing, too, as we get older, these photo's become more important to us. Take care.

WOW what a neat photo. I back in Feb and March posted pics of my family all the way back to my great great great granny. I posted pics from both sides. Kind of neat to look back> I started getting pics copied from family members and collecting stories from them while they are alive. Lori
Oh Wow, that photo is charming......memories of days gone by......thank you for stopping by my journal!
