Here is Robert French the photographer in the 1911 census, in Ashfield Avenue, Ranelagh, with daughters Mary and Annie, and grandson Griffith.

Wow, Ticking the "Show all information" box, I see Children Born: 11, Children Living 8

Niall McAuley Somehow "Landscape Photographer" doesn't do what he did justice! Do you think Mrs French was dead or away from home on census night?

A little about him here - z9.invisionfree.com/royaldublinfusiliers/index.php?showto... - Signed on with the Royal Dublin Fusiliers in 1883; and subsequently for the 11th Reserve of the RDF in 1915; Regimental No. 1331

In 1911, French is 69 and a widower. I can't immediately find him, Annie or Mary in the 1901 census.

Those would be bell tents. We were still using them in the Girl Guides in the 70's. This photo is an amazing treasure, few people realise the caribbean troops were in WW1

With the way so many are looking up, it may be the first ime they saw an airplane (or a dogfight, if they're close enough to the front).
