Very good Alan. Now no more excuses !!! Your turn to baffle us with a photo...
Correct B.G.
Died with hardly no money, in fact the very first pneumatic tyre was invented around 1846-47 by Robert Thompson, vulcunised onto a steel rim, his tyre done 1,200 miles in London in late 1847 around a park !
Probably an early Queen by the looks of her dress...

Yes she does look a bit like Jane Seymour. However, she is quite young here... about the time of her "coming out". When she married she settled in Richmond, NSW.
Your photo appears in that document (about half way down) as Mary at age 13.
Are you sure that Miroku12g is incorrect ... and the lady in the photo is not royalty?
Just asking
cheers - John

The Australian connection threw me Mongrel. I was thinking Mary Q., but she was never here. Centuries too early.
Off you go Miroku.
