    beachcomber australia Nice little blog post, and this photo plus the image and description of the house confirms that it was taken at Kilboy. And Tony Ryan living there is another priceless little nugget of information. Thank you!

    Fronm the date and his age, I'd say it might be
    Henry Prittie, 4th Baron Dunalley

    Apparently, you have an extensive collection of the family papers there at Library Towers.

    The most I can find out about any military service is "He served as a lieutenant in the rifle brigade" in his obituary in the Leinster Reporter on Saturday 13 August 1927.

    There's a record at Kew with "Date of Service = 1872 " discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C13278717 and it appears to be downloadable. I'm on the case. (that's his son - this is Lord Moustache discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C13278260)

    In the window I see David Brett's Nursery Painting Book. I see some books illustrated by a David Brett around 1906-1911, but I can't find that particular book yet.
