Great Grandpa Lloyd

One of the more irritating aspects of B.'s family (from a genealogy point of view) is a tendency to refer to people as, for example, "Great Grandpa Lloyd" without making it clear whether they mean their great grandpa Lloyd, your great grandpa Lloyd, or your child's great grandpa Lloyd. Case in point is the central photograph below. On the back my MiL's father has written "Great Grandpa Lloyd". Now if it is indeed his great grandpa Lloyd then it is the same gentleman as the drawing on the left. If on the other hand it is MiL's great grandpa Lloyd then it is the gentleman on the right.

I would crop Middle Bloke down so that his head was the same size as the other 2, I think you'd be able to compare them more like with like then. Though given all the beards and glasses, they have done an excellent disguise job!
