I have a photo of an unidentified woman whose picture was among photos belonging to my grandparents. I'm trying to establish the approximate date the photo was taken based upon the clothing style. If a relative, the picture would have been taken in the area of Sittingborne, Thanet or Gillingham. The picture may be associated with the following names: Nairne, Marshall, Piper. Any advise would be appreciated
