Oldest Inhabitants of Frodsham 1908

Kindly supplied to me by Hilary Everitt of Canada, this scan is from a postcard dated 1908, written by the photographer, J. H. Cross, and mailed to a farmer in Crowton. Photograph by J H Cross of the oldest inhabitants of Frodsham, 1908

It is particularly interesting as, in David Nield's book Bygone Frodsham and District (published by Cheshire Libraries and Museums in 1985, ISBN 0904532135) there is a similar photograph but dated as 1906 (op cit p38). The earlier photograph has just seven of the thirteen people shown in this photograph.

This is the reverse of the card: postcard text

Hilary also sent me scans of two other postcards of postcards set near Frodsham:
