    English rugby star Robert Dibble (1882-1963)? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Dibble
  • Arden said:
    pennylrichardsca: Thanks for the information on Robert Dibble. We will add some of it to the description when we update.
  • swanq said:
    There is another possible identification, particularly given the date. A Robert G Dibble was the American single sculls champion in 1914 and was doing well in the Diamond Sculls at Henley on this date. He was actually Canadian, and rowed for the Don Rowing Club of Toronto. He was beaten in the semi-finals by an Italian. See, for example, The Washington times. (Washington [D.C.]), 03 July 1914, page 2, lower right corner. chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026749/1914-07-03/ed-... www.donrowingclub.com/oldsite-dan/culture_history.php suggests that Dibble remained active in the club through ups and downs for many years. But I haven't found a picture yet.

    This is definitely Robert Dibble the sculler. Please see this link and compare photos. He was a well-known sculler and competed often in the US. www.findagrave.com/memorial/138953247?memorialUpdated=NC

    The Happy Rower1 : Thanks for the confirmation. Some of those photos are obviously a match.

    I like how a hundred years ago they were able to tag their photos with so much information. And you didn't need $1500 worth of computer gear to see it.
  • Donovan Beeson said:
    Well, these were "news" photos, so the photos were taken by photo journalists who understood the importance of documentation.
