    Default Anderson family photograph c 1903

    I would like to know whether there are any descendants of the family of william and ellen Anderson (nee Hartley)married in 1868 who would recognise the people in this photo.
    It's not a good one and it looks like they have been to a funeral-they don't look very happy.I think the clothing could be in the early 1900's and possibly the first two on the left may be William and Ellen and possibly the old lady in fron Charlotte Anderson nee Clare,William's step mother.
    I have been trying to find out about this photo for a long time and have almost given up hope.

    Any area of Liverpol known about, Dollydee? Can't recognize anyone from my family in your pic, may be able to help with Andersen name through Kellys street directory.
    Regards,

    Thanks,Chas,my Anderson family lived mostly in the Walton area.My gt.grandfather was Alexander Anderson b.1844
    mar to Ellen Hartley and the family came from Sth Leith,Scotland in the 1860's.
    I have an almost complete Family Tree but this photo is a real puzzle that I would love to solve.

    Dollydee, does your Anderson family tree contain a string of Albert Anderson's?
