Mrs. J.C. Bishop (LOC)

Spectacular hats!!! Quite an outfit on the lady in white!
Deb Malewski said:
Must have been a party of something! Fascinating!
swanq said:
Perhaps Mrs. James Cunningham Bishop, the former Miss Abigail Hancock. Married in 1891, she divorced him in 1913. See query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9907E4D6123BE633A... It was clearly a very public divorce. But I'm not sure that could be the context for this picture.

Our first non-clydebuilt steamer. This one seems to be from Liverpool (I'm waiting for the evidence to download).
derangedlemur said:
"A new steamer built at Liverpool P.S. Sybil (233 tons) replaced P.S. Meteor and became the youngest packet vessel at the Milford station in 1827. She was also the fastest steamer on the crossing with a record of 8 hours 13 minutes for a sailing between Milford and Dunmore East. " Hmm. I'm not sure that ship looks 70 years old.

Vincent is beginning to age and shows all the hallmarks of prosperity. The ladies all look well turned out, funny that the four aprons and collars are different.
Débora said:

Juffrouw Jo said:
Ah when nurses looked like nurses are supposed to look! I have an 1930s Dutch nurses uniform, much like it. My grandmothers wore it as well.
pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
Did the nurses' collar shapes signify anything? (My mother was a nurse; in her era the shape of the nurse's cap reflected where she was trained.)

I see what you mean about the David Suchet/Poirot resemblance, Carol.
