I wouldn't like to have got on the wrong side of her,,, by eck, with a look like that on her face, she could have frittened a police horse.

It seem'Pollard Graham' the photographer was born in Blackburn & by the 1880/90's had studios in many towns, Wigan included. Much information about him on Roots Web.

I was only joking, Albert, and I agree with you. Also, people weren't encouraged to smile on photos in those days as the exposure took so long and could produce a blurred image.
