As the older man has a button hole, could it have been taken at a wedding? Have you tried to date the clothes to get an idea of the decade/year? |

I have asked all family members who are still living but they don't recognise anyone ,as most of our family were from Scunthorpe and Grimsby I have also posted the photo on their facebook history and memories pages last week,I thought the background looked a little like the gardens of the club my granddad had,and my mam and dad had there wedding reception there in 1942 but not positive looking at the wedding photo of mam and dad in the Garden although it looks similar,,so possibly as you said kay maybe family friends,I was only 4 years old when my mother sadly died at the age of 28 , I did send the photo to her brother in Australia a couple of years ago ,he was 89 then, and he did not recognise anyoneHe died last year,.Hopefully I may get a link from someone .it would be lovely if they are relatives somewhere down the line.I have just had a look at the back of the photo DetEcTive and found a stamp saying SELO ,I am going to see if I can find where the photographer was from now ,hopefully narrow down a town where it was taken,let you know if I have any luck. |
