    1. Re: [GEELONG] Earliest Victorian Photos

    3. Hello Rosalyn, Hopefully Ada might add her experience / knowledge to this question but if you believe this to be a photo of you gg-grandmother on her wedding day (1842 in Geelong) then I think the answer is definitely highly unlikely (or perhaps close to impossible!). For a more informed answer you need to describe the type of photo - daguerreotype, CDV etc. and whether there are any photographers names etc. on the photo surround (front or rear).
