Original in the possession of Libby Shade.
Courtesy Bryan Burton 2013. Curiously this photo appears to have been taken in Chatham, Kent, although it has been pasted on another card; however this may have been done by the photographer. Elizabeth left for Australia as a young wife but may have visited England later.
Reverse of previous. It appears to say "To Mr & Mrs T J Burton, their Mother. June 78" but the date is not clear.

This shop was the business establishment in Richmond of Thomas James Burton (1828-1884).
The people are almost certainly Thomas, wife Elizabeth, and some of their children, and may have been taken in the 1860s-1870s.
