1880-90’s?

unknown

· this photo was in Henrietta Sarah Durham Shepherd Godfree’s possession for many years, so was presumably of her close relatives

· it was originally thought that this might be

ANN FRANCES SMITH DURHAM, CHARLES JACOB DURHAM

but they died 1876 and 1870, so it can’t be

· it may therefore be JANE ANN CHIVERS SMITH, JAMES THOMAS SMITH

Henrietta Sarah’s aunt and uncle, both of whom lived into the 20th century

· a dating exercise has given: double breasted jacket, wide lapel, high collar make the photo 1890's; high neckline, brooch, hair tied up, hat, lots of frills on the dress make it 1885-8
