You have written to me before. Hemingway & Thomas seem to have been around from about 1880 to 1910. The following information suggests that your piano may have been made before 1902. Without seeing photos of the whole piano we can't say if this is likely.

#7541 Hemingway & Thomas piano with original brass name, dated 17/9/1902 on the bottom keys.

Since the piano is probably Victorian, you may find clues at

If you want to search for clues inside the piano, have a look at

If you find old references or links on this site to pianogen.org, they should refer to pianohistory.info
