Florence Harvey is far left,middle row.An Edwardian day out at the seaside 1903. Recognise anyone?
Florence is at the far left, middle row of the photo dressed all in black, which is an odd way to dress for the beach unless in mourning. It's impossible to think what kind of outing this was as the group are so disparate in age.
Two of the women appear from the photo to have eyesight problems, or they've got very pale irises.
What can this outing be?
Can anyone recognise any of the group?
As for Florence in black, she is possibly mourning the death of her stepfather, Charles Henry Langmead who died on 12th June 1903 at Brixton Railway Station, aged 60.

The mystery,history and Archive of the Harveys of Bristol, a wealthy Victorian family 1866 to 1937.
The mystery is how this original personal family archive belonging to Florence Harvey came to be found in my deceased mother's house in Essex ten years ago.
Florence was living in Sri Lanka in the 1930's so how did it arrive in England and why did my mother have it?
My great aunt may have brought it back to England but why was it not returned to the Harvey family?
Does this Victorian family not have descendents to whom it could have been returned?
Why do the documents,archives and photos cease about 1937 when Florence Harvey's mother died?
The Harvey family have no connection to my own family.
It is our intention to return the Harvey family archive to Florence's descendents if they can be found.
Read their story on my eBay blog jeannchris and see their images here through time from 1866 to 1937.
