| Description |
At a time of year when darkness greets the early morning riser, and accompanies the worker home from her/his labours, the greeting above must have been especially provided to cheer us up? While the general location and date have been established in advance, some questions arise from this image! What was the occasion to merit such a felicitous greeting? Is the stone walled avenue still in existence? What was the name of the horse? While I am tempted to say "answers on a postcard please?" we all know what happened the last time I did so we will settle for answers below! And those answers filled in lots of blanks - confirming in particular that the banner was intended to celebrate the marriage of Sir William Henry Mahon (Baronet) to Edith Augusta Dillon (daughter of Lord Clonbrock and Lady Augusta Crofton/Dillon). We are - by this stage - very familiar with this extended family, and are delighted with the surprise invite to the big day :) When married, Sir William would have been pushing 50, and Edith in her latish 20s. They had 5 kids - several of whom we have met before. Please do take the time to check-out the other images and descriptions of the wedding that the community offers below.....
