    from MajorCalloway EDIT This photo is dated September 23rd 1908 - the room is very similar to our picture above. Note the antlers over the left hand door in our photo, was it broken (and replaced or repaired) before or after this picture? Closer to 1908 than 1890 I would guess?

    Some of the muskets are tagged but nothing else seems to be. Curious.

    I know that this must have been very hard work, but there is something about this photo and how relaxed they all look, as well as the magnificent scenery, that makes me think it would also have been a great day for all involved...

    Congratulation for your beautiful Album.

    The narrow body of water, the background and the subjects immediately made me think Kerry, and more specifically Valentia Island. I think if you look at the triangular shaped field in the back ground on the left and the line of trees from the shore, it matches up with the view from this link looking across a boggy field from Carhan Lower, Co. Kerry on the road to Portmagee looking over at Valentia Island. goo.gl/maps/J1cq43KVBtP2

    Mike Grimes Good match i'd say! Neddy and The Milky Bar Kid had a close-up - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000193943

    I'm sure someone down there could identify the family.
