    Height of fashion, back then. I am guessing she is expensively dressed.

    Beautiful photography !!!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Marta It was various members of the Dillon family of Clonbrock Estate who took all of the Clonbrock photos in our collections. They were incredibly keen and gifted early amateur photographers.

    Judging by the "Fashion and Varieties" column in Freeman's, no social occasion was complete in the late 1890s (Feb 1898 onwards) without the presence of the Honourable Edith Dillon. The Honourable Ethel's first appearance in the column is May 1899
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner So Edith was "out" from the age of about 20, and then Ethel from about 19?
  • John Spooner said:
    In Januaary 1905 Edith married Sir William Mahon at Abaseragh Ahascragh Church.
    The bride wore a white satin gown with a deep flounce of Brussels lace cught up with a bow of silver tissue, the bodice being trimmed with lace and silver gauze to correspond. Her veil was of lace, and her ornaments diamonds
    The Times (London, England), Friday, Jan 27, 1905, court circular You can't beat a good flounce
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner You certainly can't! Think that should be Ahascragh Church, John. The Clonbrock Estate was at Ahascragh in Co. Galway.
