Dating an Old Photo - Part 2

Readers never disappoint! I've received some great feedback on my request for help in Dating an Old Photo. Thank you Wonderful Readers!

I didn't give much information because I didn't want to bias anyone and I still don't. The suspicion is this picture may have been taken in the early-mid 1890s. We are trying to determine when the woman, Lucinda Ballenger, died and dating this picture may help.

Here are some other questions regarding this photo:

• How old do William and Lucinda look to be?
• Is it possible the picture was taken years earlier and reprinted?
• Input on dating their clothing would be appreciated (I'm terrible with that).

Again, thanks for all your input! Hopefully we can get a final answer as to when Lucinda died. I'll present more information in future posts.
