A photograph of (from left) JR Branwell, an unknown man and woman, Edith Branwell, Alfred Branwell and an unknown girl. Elizabeth Branwell is seated in front. They are standing to the south side of Penlee House, with the bay window of the drawing room to the right. Unlike PEZPH : 1993.45.64, in which the party seems a little less prepared for the taking of the photograph, John Branwell, the eldest son of JR Branwell who lived at Penlee House, is now not part of the picture and is most likely behind the camera.

A photograph of (left to right) an unknown lady, perhaps a cousin, and Marion Mudge, nee Branwell, third daughter of JR and Elizabeth Branwell. They are standing infront of the main doorway into Penlee House. Elizabeth Trewhella has labelled the unknown lady as Laura, but she does not resemble Laura Branwell in her facial features.

A photograph of (left to right) Edith Branwell, Marion Mudge, nee Branwell and an unknown lady, possibly a cousin in the grounds of Penlee House.

A photograph of (left to right) Edith Branwell, what Elizabeth Trewhella refers to as Alfred Branwell, and Marion Mudge, nee Branwell, three of JR and Elizabeth Branwell's six children. However, the age and looks of the boy suggest he is in fact Herbert Thomas, Laura Branwell's son. They are standing in front of the main doorway into Penlee House. Elizabeth Trewhella has dated the photograph to 'approx. 1877'.
