Nigel, Helen, and Gordon Colman

This is a picture of Nigel, Helen, and Gordon Colman. It looks like they each signed their names (Helen is "Nellie.") Looking at the rendering of "Nellie" carefully, it may be that the notations on the frames of the other Nork pictures were written by her, and not by Constance Dalziel as I had previously thought. This picture was in Murray Dalziel's scrapbook.

LNW: date is estimated based on the following: from the census in 1921 Nigel was 35 (born June Q 1886) so the photo is probably c 1901. He is in school uniform so probably over 12, and 14/15 seems a good possibility.

Frederick Edward Colman died at the start of 1900 so it is unlikely to be that year as Helen would have been wearing a mourning dress.
