Thank you Jude, it certainly looks like it is that period around 1900/02. The collar on one lady's jacket in your photo, is the same style as well.

Yes Rose, I thought she must be in her early 20's, which, if this photo was taken around 1902 would mean she was born around 1880, same period as John Henry McRae, who I think is a cousin to her or her mum.

Yes Alisa, that's my nana.

Rose, the little girl on the right was my nana's sister, Isabella Adelaide Irvine born 1890..she really wasn't as sour-looking as in the photo :-)

Yes Rose, lovely photo. It's taken after the wedding at the home of my great grandmother. It's still there...an end terrace/corner house. I like the servant peering through the window :-)
