This photograph was amongst those handed down to Mavis (Harris) Moore by her mother Beatrice (Appleton) Harris. It was in two halves and in need of considerable restoration. Is it Joseph & Martha? Are the girls at the back Martha and Elizabeth Ann? There was 12 years between their ages. If it is, then who are the boys? See if you can work it out and let me know your thoughts.

Restored

This photograph was found with the one above and was in a similar situation. Both photographs are taken by G. W. Griffin & Son of St Helens, Lancashire. The dress appears to be the same one in both photographs, so is the lady?

Another photograph from the same source. Could this be Joseph Makinson son of James Makinson and Martha Appleton? Joseph is known to have played violin in Orchestras and for silent movies to supplement his income.
