need help ID'ing early 1900's negative size


Recommended Posts

I have 400 - 500 old B&W negatives of family photos.  The oldest is my grandparents "courting" around 1912

those negatives are 85mm x 115mm.  There is no markings on the edge of the film to identify them. anyone here know what film type they would be.  Google wasn't able to answer it.  It came pretty close with type 108, but not quite. 

the newer ones of me and my sisters growing up are either 116 or 616 film as the are slightly smaller in width.

I've attached that picture.

Is there some residue from glued paper on one of the short ends of the negative? That would indicate that they are from a film pack.

no, none at all,

and the short edges are often uneven, while the long edges are perfectly straight, leading me to believe they are roll film and cut at the processing lab.
