    " ... In 1875 the house was acquired by Edward Smith for a sum of £145,000. Smith had made a fortune from trading coal on the Newry to Liverpool route and married an Isabella Cullen of Liverpool. He later became High Sheriff of Cavan in 1878.
    Later his son Major Edward Patrick Dorman Smith became High Sheriff of Cavan in 1897 and 1898 after marrying Amy Patterson in 1894. ... ..."

    beachcomber australia I wonder about the gentleman seated to the left of the door wearing the pale hat. Is it the same hat as the one that is hanging on the hatstand in the Wikipedia photo of the billiard room taken c1870?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Mike Grimes Likely! The billiard room is Image 10 in the album.

    Lord Belmont has the family sorted, but a bit vague around 1870 -

    I'd love to see one of the ship berthed at Arklow. I never miss a visit to the Maritime Museum each time I'm down there.

    Very opulent! What a great image though - so much detail and this was taken below decks - must have needed a hefty exposure!!

    "Her first voyage to North America began on 17 June 1860" She was converted into a cable-laying ship in 1865. "The conversion work for Great Eastern's new role consisted in the removal of funnel no. 4 and some boilers as well as great parts of the passenger rooms and saloons" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Great_Eastern

Charles Rawson vainly trying to write up his diary while the cat walks across the page

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The diary is part of the Rawson Archive held by the State Library of Qld, a collection of handwritten pen-and-ink diaries and photographs of the Rawson brothers and their families, who were early European settlers in the Mackay district. At the time this sketch was drawn media and entertainment were limited, and so diaries, sketches and letters were important parts of the lives of many people. Today such documents provide important evidence of the past. Charles Rawson's two diaries, from 1871 and 1877, detail daily life and are illustrated with humorous pen-and-ink sketches. His brother Edmund was an amateur photographer and their work combines to make a record of Mackay in the 1870s. Source www.scootle.edu.au/ec/viewMetadata.action?id=R9199&q=...
