Find Living Relatives

I have a photograph of Sophia sitting on her mothers knee (Mrs Edith Falconer, b 1871). Photo taken about 1910.

Sophia was born in Richmond,Surrey. AMJ 1909.

I have found records in the 1911 census about the family.

Father is John Downie Falconer born 1877.

I would like to pass this photo (which is in remarkably good condition) on to surviving relatives.

Regards

John

Have you looked to see if she is in anyone's tree on here,and then tried to contact them?

If this is her, she has lost her middle names:

Hi, many thanks for your reply. Your Sophia is not the one I have. This is a photograph that I have acquired with some information on the back. A search has found the information that I have on her.

She is not a relative, just a photograph I would like to find a home for.

Thanks for your time and effort.

Thank you to everyone who has taken time to research and answer. I really would like to trace a living relative to pass this photograph on to.

With Regards

John

Have you got her birth certificate for exact date of birth to see if that death I posted is her?
If it is we would know that she did not marry.
If it is not her we can try and find another death.
Neither she nor her sister show on trees on here, so it is unlikely that any living relatives are on this site, so you need to do some more research to try and find someone.
Could you say how you got to have the photograph?
Have you found the deaths of the parents to get death certificates to see who the informants are, for further clues?

Flip:

Dora's date of birth is given as 11.3.11 and Richard's as 12.10.03 on a voyage in 1956 to Lagos (their residence previously in Scotland) which does not fit with that 1911 census?
