  • Can anyone date this please ?

    Hi
    Can any have a go at dating this photo please ?

    The vicar John Thomas Draper was born 1860.Also what age would you say John is here.Also what age would you give for the women either side of him? as this might help identify them.
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not much good at fashions but had a look. I would say the vicar is between 30 and 40. The woman in black to his right may be about 60. The woman on his left may be about the same age as him. Are they holding hands?

      Paul did you mean when the photo was taken (date)?

      I'd say just at the turn or first few years of the 20th C - 1896-1906.

      The skirts are not quite as full as the earlier Victorian - but not yet quite as straight as the Edwardian. The hats were worn more full on (flat) to the head.
