I have 2 photos taken in Towcester, England, one I know is a Hannah Chapman nee Summers. She died in 1912 at the age of 85 yrs. in Silverstone, in the photo she is an old woman so I think the photo was take 1or or two years before her death. |

Have you put your tree on GR? It's the best way to try to link up with others researching the names |
