| Description |
With thanks to our amazing contributors, it seems that this really is the Riley family: Annie and Edward Riley and their 4-year-old twins Ethel and Sutcliffe. Given that only 764 of the nearly 2000 souls aboard the Lusitania were saved (more than a few due to Irish rescue boats and fishermen), it’s very telling that this image seems to capture one of the few (and perhaps only) families to survive the Lusitania sinking “intact”. Other young families were not as fortunate. It is good to know that the Rileys continued their journey home to Bradford, where they lived the rest of their days.... Photographer: A.H. Poole Studio Photographer Collection: Poole Photographic Collection Date: Saturday, 8 May 1915 NLI Ref: POOLED 2725 You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie |
