Can Anyone Recognise These Two

[Cariboo5]

This locket came from England. It was made in Chester in 1909. The one picture of the man shows some fancy window coverings
for the day. This locket may have been for people with some wealth at the time. This is a long shot....Does anyone recognise who
these people are? Thanks to all in advance..

If the photos are from the 1909 era, I suspect the "fancy window coverings" are a photography studio backdrop.

The woman seems to be going for the 'Maude Fealy' look - popular actress in the very early 1900's.

If the guy had a mole above the right eye like the mobster it would be close...

If you can carefully open it, they may be named on the backs of the photos...

That is the plan when I receive it. I just hope after all these years I can separate the glass. If the pictures are etched on the glass then
it will probably take some time to remove them carefully. Should there be names on the back I will post the results...Thanks for the input..
