Grandparents in 1901

This photo of my grandparents with my two aunts and uncles was taken in 1901, a decade before my mum was born. I love the large collar and those pristine white pinafore dresses. My uncle, far left, was a captain in WW1.

That's a fabulous photo. So these are your Mum's siblings. You've inspired me Lis, I'm going to get my box of old photos out of the loft.

So is the one sitting on your grandfather's lap a boy then?

[Lis Lapthorn]

@susiemc Yes. That’s my Uncle Stan. In those days clothes for very young children were the same for boys and girls. I remember my dad telling me that.

A lovely piece of family history.
