  • Faces but no names in Essex

    I inherited an album of some 18 carte de visit type photographs of my maternal grandmother's family (possibly some friends) and all unnamed. I can identify one positively and another couple of them possibly. The photos go back as far as 1850/60 as best I can judge but I may be wrong about the earliest dates. The surnames that these people would likely be Roast, Hutchin(g)s, Cottis, Bright, Bowyer, and related others. The family centres on Terling and all villages around and about. I have got back to the 1500s using SEAX and almost every individual comes from Essex. If anyone has these names in their family tree and also has any old family photos I would just love to compare faces and perhaps finally identify a few more. (Why didn’t anyone mention this album while my Nan was still alive:(.

    I am also more than happy to share my research of any of these Essex names if anyone thinks they might be researching the same lines.
