Albert Saggers ( Uncle Bert) and lady?

This photograph is of Uncle Bert and a lady who I don't recognise,I would hazard a guess that the lady was his Mother in law as she looks very much like Aunty Doris (Uncle Bert's wife) hopefully Sylvie Dianne or Tony (uncle Bertt's children) can confirm this, the photo is from my sister Janet's collection,

I would guess this photo was took the same day as the photo below of three of his daughter's ( our Mum's) possibly Southend on Sea mid 1930's .

Tommy Collins and unidentified girl

This picture is of our Tommy and  I am not sure who the girl is ,hopefully Johnny or Aunty Bet will know, it is possibly Aunty Rose ? this photo is one that Janet came across this week

The Three Saggers Girl's

             The Three Saggers Girls, this picture is of my Mum ( Joan ) on the left, her sister Rose on the right and their youngest sister Betty ,It was probably took at Southend on sea circa 1936, my sister Janet came across this picture and a few others among our Mum's collection

Are these two photograph's of the same person ?

The top picture is cropped from the group photo that i posted a few day's ago,the picture came with a letter to John from our Mums and Dad's  cousin Jack,

 the picture is of our Nan's Mother ,( Granny Jelly ) his Mother  Ruby , together with her children Including Jack who sent the picture , his sister's ,Ruby and Doris and Nan's youngest sister Margaret ,

when  my cousin John Collins fetched his collection of photographs , there was also another picture amongst them of a lady which looked to me like the same person but older, John wasn't sure who the lady was and thought it might be Aunty Ag , I sent the picture to my cousin Andy and asked him if he could ask his Mum ( Aunty  Betty ) if she could  identify who it was, 

immediately  Aunty Betty identified her as Nannie's sister Margaret Jelley or Mag's as the family called her  , anyway I decided the best way to be able to compare them properly was to crop the head's off the photos and put them together and here they are below ,

what do you all think, if everyone let's me know I will post any reply's anyone send's me together with these pictures : 

Andy has emailed me and he agrees they are both the same person

DIane has just contacted me and she also  thinks that they are both picture's of Aunty Mag's

What a great snapshot,it look's like Johnny is asking  Aunty Eve for some bus fare and he look's as if he was in a real hurry and Aunty Eve's looking quite amused by Johnny's intenseness , I would say it was taken circa 1948 , it is part of Johnny's collection
