Apr 24, 2016 4:05 PM in response to Dawntongsby FoxFifth,Sorry but photos that were synced to an iPad from a computer are not included in an iPad backup so doing a restore won't retrieve them. This is noted in About backups in iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
They aren't in the cloud anywhere. I don't remember the exact wording but if there are synced photos on an iPad when iCloud Photo Library is turned on, a warning is given that they will be deleted (although that doesn't help at this point).
The iTunes sync isn't meant to be a backup of the Windows PC. It is assumed that the originals are maintained on the PC. If she backed up the PC then accessing that backup is her best hope.
