They're like little dolls - and circa 1910, you can tell who is a girl and who is a boy! :) A found photo, can you help Vi and Jim of Canada return home?

That little girl is sportin' a 'tude already!

Sweet picture, but you post way to many of children, how about some cooler pictures

Is the assumption that this is a girl based on the name on the photo? Was it only "Vi"? Could be short for Victor or Vincent or another boy's name unless otherwise indicated. Boys often wore dresses as toddlers and I feel like that would be a very unusual hairstyle for a little girl.

My mom sports the exact same hairstyle in her portrait taken in 1959. Think it's fairly unisex.

Exactly... I have a photo of my grandpa wearing a dress. Boys usually wore dresses until they had been potty trained for a while!

I guess it only matters if we're looking for the family. It might be helpful to consider that one of the two could have been a boy.

I sported this hairstyle in the mid 1950's. My two daughters (one born in 1979, the other in 1991) both wore this 'do'. I don't think a 'time' really applies for it.

I like that they were able to have their picture taken even though they didn't have new shoes.

Haha ! But I think because kids grow so fast shoes were hand me downs until they stopped growing. That’s what my granny told me.

Well, as with every time there are fashionable styles. When boys wore dresses, they typically would have a side part, and girls would have a middle part, to distinguish between the two. Also girls might have an off the shoulder dress. This is hard because a mohawk wasn't a common enough style to say for sure if it was a boy or a girl. The dress reads a little boyish to me though. Could still be a girl, of course. Just conjecture.
