There is a Florence Fair in www.imdb.com/name/nm0265408/ as well: "Florence Fair was born on December 14, 1907 in Salida, Colorado, USA as Flobelle Fairbanks. She was an actress, known for The Love of Sunya (1927), In Caliente (1935) and I Am a Thief (1934). She was married to Shirley C. Burden. She died on January 5, 1969 in New York City, New York, USA." Seems to be the same woman (at least the place and date of death is the same), but the date of birth (1907) cannot be true. According to her (Italian !) wikipedia entry she was the niece of Douglas Fairbanks it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_Fair

Thanks for posting. I used the image (and cited the museum) for a natural history quiz where participants had to guess the age of different species.

Where are all the Females of Swords?

Swords House is behind the trees on the left side.

From the Fingal Independent:

"The house was owned by Col.Fitzeustace Forster and at the beginning of the 20th century, to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria, he allowed the general public to come in and view the ‘light show’ he had organised.
Apparently, every window in the house was lit up to mark the occasion and that would have been a rare sight for Swords."

In 1901 he was "absent on the Continent".

There's a lady (or at least someone wearing skirts) in the left-middle ground. She is blurred. Because, unlike all the stationary males, she's got stuff to do. I expect the other females of the locality all had better things to do than stand about for a photo :)
