    I wonder what the conversation was like between these ladies and photographer. The first one was very attractive. ... I wonder what their lives were like, how did they think and talk. What would they think of cars and planes, and air conditioning? How superstitious would they be? What kind of sense of humor would they have? ?? It makes me sad that they're all dead laying in an old graveyard. Life is weird.

      Their lives were very simple diseases like scarlett fever and diphtheria were taking children from 5 to 15 yrs age, Being from the Victorian era it was about stiff upper lip and society manners etc, The women were very feminine and spoke in a very dainty English manner.

    I wonder what frames and braces, out of sight, were used to keep the subject motionless during the long exposures of the day. I wonder what they smelt like with the monthly bath 'whether we need it or not' and before modern-era dentistry happened with its anesthetics! (From a school English text for 12 -13 year old children ca 1940s - rewrite the following sentence correcting the colloquial vernacular; The poor little josser came out of the dentist's looking like nothing on earth.)

      They used a 25-30lb stand to help the subject hold a pose for the minute required. Very similar to a microphone stand.

    A lot of these ladies had freckles back then. Probably because they worked outside in the sunshine for many years.

      Freckles mean you worked outside, and working outside meant you were poor/like power class, so women in those days tried very hard to avoid the sun. The whiter the skin, the more desirable and attractive a woman was.

      That's what you'd think, but no. The photographic processes in those years was sensitive to ultraviolet light. As a result, freckles, blemishes, and other features invisible in normal light were made visible. Do a search for "faces under UV light" - and brace yourself.

      Not certain but sometimes the photograph was an mirror image. There is a famous photograph of Bill The Kid holding an 1873 Winchester rifle with the loading gate on the wrong side indicating it was a mirror image.
