Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Goggles, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

This may be Mrs. Arthur Carroll, [note spelling] 64 East Seventy-seventh Street, New York City.

Mrs. Annie Livingston Best, daughter of Mrs. Clermont Livingston Best, married Arthur Carroll, the elder son of General Howard Carroll and Mrs. Carroll of Carrollcliffe, Tarrytown, in September, 1910 in New York City. Arthur Carroll was a 1904 graduate of Columbia University.

Annie Livingston Best had previously married Elizur Yale Smith in November, 1907, however they divorced the following June and she resumed using her maiden name. Elizur Yale Smith spent some time in jail in Kingston, NY, in 1911, after defrauding hotels with bad checks.

National Library of Ireland on The Commons There ye go.. Michael Carroll, 63 in 1901, Shepherd. The man to his right might be one of his sons. www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Galway/Cloubroc... If it is the Michael Carroll as per 1901 census then the photograph was taken before 1911 as he had passed away by then. www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/results.jsp?census_...

This is a fantastic picture of times past and farming practices long gone. Red raddle has been supplanted by dye markers and so on but this image tells a story of an ancient way of identifying your property. I love the stocks to hold the poor sheep while his backside is being burned. In the background the fleeces are being gathered having been sheared just before the branding! Wonderful image.
