I'd like some fellow genealogists to take a look at the photograph below and tell me what you think:

http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2039/oldphotown1.jpg

I already know that the studio photographer, Mrs Susan Williams is recorded at this address in 1895, 1899 and the 1901 census, but not in 1905, and obviously the style of the photo dates it to somewhere a couple of years either side of 1900. What is really puzzling me is the woman and the baby. The photo came from my granddads tin, but neither me or my aunt have any clue who she or the baby might be. To my mind, the lady in the photo looks quite old - too old to be the mother, so probably a grandmother.

My gt grandfather married in 1897 in West Gorton, and the only one of his parents to be alive at this point until 1907 was his mother (my 2x gt grandma). Their first child to survive infancy was born in 1901, a girl.

Does anyone have any opinions and ages of either party in the picture. Mum&Child or Grandma&Child?

hi there, i got in to a fight 6 weeks ago and the police came to interview me now. The guy i had a fight with was my sisters ex husband. He was from pakistan and immigrant. My sister called him over and when he came to england he wasnt intrested in my sister but more intrested in going after other girls. The marriage broke down and my dad was a very nice guy he didnt want to send my sisters ex husband back because his family back in pakistan were poor. so my dad thought good for him but even though he turned out to be bad. Once he got his visa in the Uk he started threatning my family including my sisters and my elderly mother. He was making abusive phone calls to my house in the middle of the nite, and when he saw any of my family on the street he abused them. But 6 weeks ago he abused me, and he grabbed hold of me and wont let me go so i totally knocked him out clean, i wanted to teach him a lesson. what could i say to the police am scared ? if i go to cout it will affect my career ?

I have tried grounding it with one foot. I have tried to pull the cord using both hands. I am no weakling but, unfortunately, I give up! Any suggestions? It is supposed to be an "easy start" model. Thanks very much!

It is a worldwide fact that children are becoming obese and hooked on fast food in the fast food industry. What do you think on the topic.

Okay, maybe I am being really dense, but I have just come back from a trip to New England (had an amazing time) and I am confused by signs I kept seeing.

As I was driving around every so often there would be a sign saying "caution: Low salt area", especially around the Cape Cod area.

What does this mean and why?!?!

Please excuse my English ignorance and thank you!

The Church teaches us that Grace flows from Mary, the New Eve. She was full of grace, sinless, spotless before God. She is are Mediatrix and our Co-Redemtrix. From Her, all Grace flows...

Say you have a name that can be spelled several ways like Brian/Bryan OR Robby /Robbie OR Sidney/Sydney, OR Catherine/Katherine etc. Would it bug you if people continually spell it wrong?

I order a cafe mocha at Starbucks, and it happens every time. I order one somewhere else, and it doesn't.

What is it about Starbucks that gives me this problem? What do they put in it??
