Don't know if this is clear enough Jon..

This is my 2x gr grandparents with their children... taken about 1880ish

These are some of mine Jon.

The first is of my Renshaw relatives. Peter Felix Renshaw and Anastasia Renshaw (nee Cummins) had 10 sons and 1 daughter 1 son died at birth. Photo taken around late 1800's early 1900's.

Second is Anastasia Renshaw (nee Cummins) with son John Ignatius and wife Anne with one of their 8 children from the clothing I suspect it was John Brophy Renshaw who later became Premier of NSW.

The last is my Grandparents William Cummings and Eva (nee Cooper) standing. Man with dog is a cousin and seated William Rigney and Ethel (nee Cummins) taken around 1949 to 1950 - 51 not long before my birth in our front yard.

Hope they are ok.

Quite the fashion plates...this is the Liddell family in New Zealand, c1880.

Not sure if the quality is clear enough...

Similarly the 2nd one is quite the fashionable family...this is the Liddell family in New Zealand, c1870.

Not sure if the quality is clear enough...
