 | Finlaysons at Owen in 1893
Colin Semmler stated that the photo was taken about 1893 and they were David 48 yrs, Raymond 16, Ruby 5, Mary 43, Marie 10, Eveline 12, Ethel 18 and Oliver 14 yrs. For some reason, the two eldest children, Everard 19 and Florence 21, were absent at that time. The family are dressed up for a special occasion - what might this event be? |
 | Finlayson family - about 1950s - cropped
Uncertain identification as follows.
Back row - left to right - probably Raymond, Oliver & Everard.
Front - probably Marie, Ethel, Florence (or their mother, Mary) & Ruby. |

Uncertain identity as follows.
Back row (left to right) - probably Oliver (or Raymond), David, Raymond (or Oliver) & Everard.
Front row - probably Marie, Ruby, Mary, Ethel (or Florence) & Florence (or Ethel).
The lattice indicates that this photo was taken in the same place as the other big family photo taken about 5 years earlier (1893) - probably in front of the family house in Owen.
