A cropped, and reversed version of this photo ran in the Portland Sunday Oregonian of July 23, 1916 with the caption: " Sir George A. D. Dunbar, who has just married Sophie Kennedy, an American girl, is an officer in the Royal Highlanders. Prior to obtaining his commission in the Black Watch, he was in South Africa and at the outbreak of the war enlisted in the Natal Carbineers who were mobilized to quell the rebellion and later took part in the conquest of German Southwest Africa." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1916-07-23/ed-1/se...
