Hi, please can anyone help me date this family photo? The family lived in north London from the 1850s to the 1930s.

There is a name on the back of the photo - Jessie - but this a name of both a mother (1854-1920) and her daughter (1876-1966).

My guess is that this is a picture of the mother, taken in the 1870s. Would the style of dress support this?

Wih many thanks,

JG
