    Any ideas how old this chap is, and when was the photo taken?

    Does he look like a tailor?

    The photographer ~ Alfred Thomas Ward (Ward & Co)
    was at 2 of the addresses
    421 Kings Rd Chelsea (1890 - 1907)
    346 Battersea Pk Rd (1891 - 1906)

    and it says no 64 (not 54) Brixton Rd, Lambeth (1894 - 1906) ~ but this could be a mistake

    here's the link

      Hi Rachel,
      thanks - I was looking as you posted
      I'd got it to 1894-1903 (ish) don't suppose I can get it more accurate than that.

      if the chap is who I think it is, he was born 1834 & died 1908.

          bumping, if anyone wants to compare this handsome chap with the earlier one taken 1863.

              should be Rachel, we think its the same chap :D

              I prefer the older-looking chap, I think he looks very distinguished.

              I could fancy him, if he weren't my gt gt grandfather
