[Group portrait at the wedding of a Dalla dockyard foreman, Rangoon.] Photographer: Unknown
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Portrait Photography
A note by A.G. McCrae on the verso reads: 'Marriage at Dalla circa 1910 of a Dockyard Foreman. The date I can guess as two in the photo were well known to me, viz, 3rd from left back row, Thomas Cormack, who joined the I.F.Co as Management Assistant in 1909 and was General Manager from 1932-1937 (I joined the company in 1933). The bearded gentleman in the middle was Robert Barr then Engineer Supdt of the fleet and in the 1920s was consultant at Glasgow office when I knew him well. The ladies' hats are worth study'.
