[Ellen Tremaye alias Edward] de Lacy Evans, c, 1879 by N. White,

  • Bess Chilver said:
    Interesting photo because the dress is bang on 1869 - ten years earlier. Its certainly not 1879.
  • State Library of New South Wales said:
    The photo is dated from the photographer, Nicholas White of Bendigo, who created this photograph by cutting and pasting Tremaye's face onto both faces of another couple's portrait. The dress may be a little out of date because an older photograph was used but the scandal had not broken until 1879 and the point of the photomontage was to capitalise on the news. (The woman's hairstyle would be ca. 1872-1876, possibly later than the dress which was kept for much longer then). Hence the 1879 date!

    What a stately edifice. I thought it was a country estate before I read your narrative!
  • Robin Parkes said:
    Looks as though he knows he's been caught in the act by his actions :) That was a magnificient building. Torn down in the name of progress.

    Nick Stewart It's a bit scruffier round the back. I've spent many an hour sitting on its draughty platforms between trains as a small child on my way to visit my grandparents.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Robin Parkes Aw, is the building gone? Or the whole railway station?
  • Nick Stewart said:
    derangedlemur I have vague memories of Omagh station as a child. Mr.Beeching's axe got it though, along with countless others.
