Make sure to take my best side?

    Looks 1900ish to me.

    According to thepeerage.com, Charles Victor Albert Aubrey de Vere Beauclerk was the 11th Duke of Saint Albans from 1898 to 1934 and never married, so the Duchess cannot be his wife, it must be his mother, Lady Sybil Mary Grey who was duchess from her marriage in 1867.

    Edit: No, she died in 1871, aged 22! Did her husband remarry?

    Yes, he married Grace Bernal-Osborne in 1874 in Tipperary.

    The Bernal-Osbornes owned Newtown Anner house and demesne near Clonmel. Poole has a shot in the archive commissioned by the Duchess of St. Albans.

    Congratulation for your beautiful Album.

    From the Wikipedia article on her sister, Edith Blake: The Osbornes appear to have become estranged early in their marriage, with her father living in London, seeing Edith and her Grace raised by her mother alone. Mrs Osbourne was a talented artist, and encouraged both her daughters to take up artistic pursuits. Artists often stayed at Newtown Anner, including Thomas Shotter Boys and Alexandre Calame, and it is possible the sisters received tuition from them.

    And: In 1874 she married widower and Royal Irish Constabulary sub-inspector Henry Arthur Blake. As her parents did not approve of the marriage and had been arranging a suitable marriage for her, the couple eloped. Following the marriage, Edith was disinherited.

    So it looks as if Grace got the Demesne.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Grace was born sometime after 1846, so she was 54 in 1900. That is surely her sitting with the grey hair and big hat.
