Lyn 1 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I had two old photos my mother gave me and they were obviously from the Victorian era. When doing my family history research, by the process of elimination and knowing they came from my mother's paternal side, I was able to guess they were my great grandparents Frank & Eliza Rodger born in the 1830s. Some years later I made contact with a distant cousin who had two beautiful Victorian Albums full of lovely photographs. She too had this couple in her album so I was able to confirm that, I had in all probablity, guessed correctly. Unfortunately we could never find out who the other people were as none of the photos had any writing on them at all. One day you may meet someone with the same photos and you may be able to work it out or perhaps they may have ones with names written on them. Fingers crossed.

Lyn With modern digital photography and the ability to "tag" people in a picture as well as add all sorts of other information to it when it is taken, then, given another 100 years or so when todays pictures become history this problem of identification may become less of a stumbling block for future family historians.

ukelele lady Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 This one is of my great grandfather's daughter. She used to sing in the music halls in Yorkshire. Her sister used to " clog " dance on the Roscoe stage before it was a picture house or maybe it was dual purpose built, someone will know. Their father was an illusionists and performer and an ex keeper of the Blue Pig , Workhouse Lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
