Fanny Schnelle (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

    Presumably en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanny_Schnelle "Fanny Schnelle (30 November 1866 – 31 January 1953) was a Norwegian politician for the Liberal Left Party."

    The Washington times. (Washington [D.C.]), 18 May 1909. Page 3, column 1 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026749/1909-05-18/ed-... lists Fannie Schnelle as one of five Scandinavian women arriving in New York en route to the International Suffragists Congress in Toronto. The [New York] sun., December 26, 1915, page 1, col 2 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030272/1915-12-26/ed-... names Mrs. Fanny Schnelle, a member of the town concil of Bergen as a delegate to a neutral conference associated with Henry Ford's peace mission to Europe. digitalarkivet.no/sab/bergensposten2/gymnast.htm has a photo of a Fanny Schnelle (also born in 1866) who appears to have been a gymnast and could easily be the same woman (rather younger).

    From totaltreningsglede.blogg.no/1357759505_idrettshistorie.html Google Translate produces: "One can see that the trend in politics and sport to some extent with each other and this is illustrated by Fanny Schnelle, director of a women's party, became the first woman elected to the Left Party in 1902. " This seems to confirm that the gymnast and the politician are one and the same.

    This aint the "Brisbane Floods 1893" !! Not 100% sure yet, but I think it may be the SS 'Austral' (Orient Line) which sank in Neutral Bay whilst being loaded with coal.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Yes! The original photo was by John Paine in 1882
    "Sinking of the S.S. Austral, Neutral Bay, New South Wales, 1882" (NLA nla.pic-vn4851231)

    Read all about it - SMH 13/11/1882 p.7 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/13523253 .
  • beachcomber australia said:
    The full story - www.nicholaseggleston.com/familyhistory/eggleston/Passeng... The salvage / re-floating operation was remarkable for any time, let alone 1882/3.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    More about the photographer P.C. Poulsen (1857-1925). He moved from Sydney to Brisbane in 1882 - www.photo-web.com.au/poulsen/default.htm . I wonder why he made the film copy?

    From Kirribilli, looking east over Careening Cove, Neutral Bay towards Bradleys Head. The house with balcony (Southampton Cottage) still stands at the corner of Elamang Avenue and Willoughby Street, Kirribilli. See Google street view (updated) : g.co/maps/56u6q

    How could we have missed the "A C P 1898" signature and date before ?! Sometimes you can;t see the wood for the trees. See note bottom right.
