We have heard of the Irish Brigade before - Roger Casement's plan to recruit Irishmen in German POW camps to fight for Ireland instead. He made an agreement with the Germans in Dec 1914, and managed to get 50 or so men to sign up. I think the plan ended with his death, so this must be in 1915 or early 16.
Niall McAuley said:
Wikipedia has the same photo, and says 1915.

It appears to be Michael Gambon and some other fellow. Here he is with his hat on: www.imdb.com/media/rm2044238080/nm0002091?ref_=nmmd_md_pv
Sharon Corbet said:
derangedlemur That would explain why I can't find him in the census...
Sharon Corbet said:
Possibly the "Synnott" is the founder (or son of) of John A. Sinnott which is around since 1865.
derangedlemur said:
I didn't see a matching Sinnott, Synnot or Synott in the census either, so if he's spelt wrong, it's in some quite random fashion.
derangedlemur said:
Sharon Corbet Maybe it was commissioned in the firm's name and there were already no Sinnotts left in the firm by that stage.
