Fascinating name: Frederic John Napier Thesiger, 1st Viscount Chelmsford, in full Frederic John Napier Thesiger, 1st Viscount Chelmsford of Chelmsford, Baron Chelmsford of Chelmsford, Source: www.britannica.com/biography/Frederic-John-Napier-Thesige...
Vesna Verencevic said:
Some sources indicate that Joan's surname, Governor Chelmsford's daughter, is spelled as Thesiger rather than Thesiper.

Not from Government House, but a building at the corner of Bent and Macquarie Streets - later (1891) the Australian Club. Or possibly the top of the (old) Public Library. Compare with earlier Henry King (different gates) - And later Charles Kerry (with 1893 Garden Island sheerlegs) - It was a popular view with photographers - right out through the Heads.

beachcomber australia Ah - cheers Beachcomber! Jørn Utzon must have had access to our wonderful Hungerford album :)
