| John King Oaksford |
| On the back of this picture of John King with his first wife, it had a stamp which said: W. Wingfield Photographer 33 Sidbury Worcester which is the capital of Worcestershire |
| Picture taken in Gloversville |
Could this be John King's or Hannah's
mother or even Grandmother if the top
two are indeed his parents. This photo
was taken in the same place, same
baby, with the same stamp on the back
mother or even Grandmother if the top
two are indeed his parents. This photo
was taken in the same place, same
baby, with the same stamp on the back
| I researched W. Wingfield Photographer on the internet at that same address and found other families photo's using the same photographer. The photo's were always labeled 1880 or 1881. Perhaps these pictures were taken before our family left England in 1880. |
| This was on the back of both of these pictures above. They are also taken in the same room. Mom thought the man was John King's father, so I am assuming the women would be John King's mother possibly |
