Ah, in that case you have a date range for the picture - 1919 - March 1921. |

I don't think Frederick was there..it was his picture. |

This will help you to date one of your pictures, but add to the mystery further. During wartime the name of the ship would have been removed from the sailor's hat, so that means the picture was post-war. In 1919 HMS Carnarvon served as a cadets' training ship until sold in March 1921 and broken up on 8 November 1921. So are you sure the other person in the picture was Frederick? |

I've had a look on the 1901 census on Ancestry, but haven't had any luck in identifying the family on there yet. |

It may be better for you if you asked for a census lookup.. Hope it works out. |
