1870s late - Bridget Lane (nee Carrucan) with one of her children163 viewsBridget Lane (nee Carrucan) 1858-1949 with one of her children.

He is shown seated on a horse outside the Plenty Pub at Lower Plenty while we think it is Susan seated on the steps with a group of others. As he died in 1907, aged 49, this photo must predate that date.
