Hello, I am looking for information relating to this picture of Julia Griffin Kennedy Cassidy and Molly (Margaret)Cheevers. Would love to know what year it was taken and more about them. I am trying to trace what happened to Molly's dad Matthew as I cannot find him after the 1901 census. He had three children with Norah Griffin Cheevers and my grandad Edward was one. Any information or help would be great.

Many thanks,

Colette Cheevers Collins.
