The Boisset les Prévanches Mystery (update: 1907/08 Lorraine Dietrich)
Richard Rodier sends this fine Edwardian picture of the family Thiry, who are the grandmother and grandmother of Count Hugues de Bonardi. The Domaines des Prévanches in the backdrop is still there and still with the family Bonardi. It is known that back then the family owned two cars, a Morris Léon Bollée and a Delaunay Belville. Richard wonders if the car depicted is one of these two.

Certainly not a Morris Leon Bollee - which is 1920s - or a Delaunay-Belleville which would have a round radiator. The radiator shape suggests it might be a Minerva from around 1906.

This certainly is not a Morris Léon Bollée since this make didn't exist yet when this picture was taken.
It is neither a Delaunay-Belleville since the car doesn't have a cilindrical bonnet.
My guess at the moment: a Lorraine-Dietrich of about 1908.

It is neither of these, but apparently a 1907 Lorraine-Dietrich double phaeton.

Morris Leon Bollee were late 1920's and Delauney Belville had a round radiator so it's neither of these. My guess would be a Leon Bollee of 1906-08 as the shape of the bonnet is similar and the name connection makes sense, or possibly a Mors.

The front and the wheels looks like the 1909/11 Leon Bollee which is auctioned today in UK (see lot 87 - http://www.angliacarauctions.co.uk/classic-auctions/saturday-25th-january-2014.aspx),
