Mary Henderson Cameron's First Photograph Album

Notes on Photograph : 1 - 01
Confidence in Identification (0%) &  Reason(s) for identification / doubts

Direct identification by Cameron family members such as Lilias Harvey (nee Cameron). Cannot be completely certain, as both mothers (Cameron & Henderson) died 1907 / 8 - no-one I have met could have identified from physical knowledge. There are a number of elderly female subjects in this album - candidates include Ann Cameron, Mrs Henderson and Mrs Thomson? Also note that the other women are displayed in this album next to photographs of men (husbands?), and May Henderson was not widowed until after this photo was taken.
