the dates the photos were taken are in the exif tags within the image itself and should show up in any application that can read them. i'm pretty sure iphoto shows it; aperture and lightroom definitely do. there are also scripts that can set the file creation/modification time of the file as seen in the finder to whatever the exif tag is.
if you have a complete backup, then there's no real need to bother with undeleting anything.
