Jane was born Jane Pugh, and married Evan Morris in 1848. He died before he was forty, so Jane had been a widow for around thirty years when this was taken. Their children who appear in this picture are (oldest to youngest):
These are all the surviving children at the time. Four others - Anne, Richard, Elizabeth and another Anne - died young.
Jane appears as Jane Anderson. She married (London, 1873) Albert Anderson from Lanark, who was a policeman. He died in 1885.
Mary appears as Mary Jones, having married John H Jones, who also appears in the picture.
We also see William's wife Jane (née Roberts).
The youngest generation in the picture are the three children of Mary and John H Jones:
and the three children of William and Jane:

The second photo was evidently taken on the same occasion. It shows William Morris, his wife Jane, and their three children Mary Jane, Anne Catherine and Evan William.
