  • Ladies (mostly)

  • Men (mostly)

  • Cologne — about the end of WW1

  • Bishop Eaton — 1920, I suspect a seminary

    The lady standing on the right
    appears to have a watch
    pinned to her lapel.    		 And this is the figure
    in the background.

    I've heard of cutting off heads
    and feet but that looks ridiculous.

     

     

    However, I think it is really meant
    to be a photo of these two ladies
    whoever they are.

    [I can't think who would be having
    their photograph taken in Larne.]

    [But there is a postcard from Larne,
    from Margaret Mary,
    though the handwriting look different
    but the spelling is the same.]

    (I won't mention Lena in the middle
    but the lady on the right might be Fanny.)
     

    448 355 - Beach Studios, Durban
    [If you think this family looks German,
    there might be a connection with Pat Dowd
    being stationed there at the end of WW1. But, ....]    		 [No indication as to who, when or why
    but since it is embossed "Beach Studios, Durban,
    at least we have some idea of where.]

    Cologne

    There is nothing on the back of any of these (apart from the occasional publisher/photographer credit)
    and since I am not aware of Lena having visited Cologne, and given the apparent date of these views,
    I am inclined to the notion that they were acquired by Pat during his service overseas.

    Bishop Eaton

    All three have on the back — "From Fr Slattery C.S.S.R., Bishop Eaton Easter 1920"

    There is a place on the current map called Eaton Bishop, not a million miles from Hereford.
