Photo inherited by family of
Eleanor Cashel and Edward Benjamin Cameron.
Identification of photo:
- The back
says it is
"G.H. Cashel"
and then in different writing:
"father of Robert Cashel, grandfather of Eleanor and Bessie Cashel,
great-grandfather of Marion G.C. Bromley
(née Cameron)".
- So one might think it is the grandfather of Eleanor and Bessie Cashel,
who was
George Cashel, born 1780,
married Grace Wilson, died 1855.
- Except there are problems.
First, Eleanor and Bessie's father is George not Robert.
(They have a brother Robert.)
- Second, it looks a later photo than 1855 and a younger man than age 75.
I gave the photo to ChatGPT with no other information
and it thinks it dates to "about 1865-1875"
and the man is "about 28-35 years old".
- Returning to "G.H. Cashel" in the original writing,
the conclusion must be that
it is the brother of Eleanor and Bessie, George Cashel of Shallee (bapt 1843).
- The photographer is at
Fishergate, Preston, Lancashire.
Might have been taken when travelling to or from New Zealand.
