Photograph album of the Ive and Bagot families

1908, Photograph, B 28519/212-306

Photograph album thought to have been compiled by Eileen Dubois Ive (later Mrs John Frederick Bagot) daughter of Charles William Ive and Agnes Dubois. The album contains photographs of many family members and friends, at 'Acton', Woodville and other places, showing fund raising and commemoration days during and after the first World War, such as Cheer Up Society work and marches, events such as Repatriation Day, French Red Cross Day and the opening of the Soldiers' War Memorial on North Terrace. Eileen married John Frederick Bagot in 1915 before his departure to France with the 13th Light Horse brigade and this album includes a number of photographs presumably taken by John Bagot, of fellow officers, places in Egypt, France and Palestine, and of the Camel Corps. The album contains five additional loose photographs, six postcards and one newspaper cutting regarding the sale of Stradbroke, the Magill home of Mr C. L. J. Dubois (maternal grandfather of Eileen Ive) and these have been placed at the end of the album. The postcards and newspaper clipping have not been digitised.

The Old Colonists Banquet Group [mosaic]

Gall, Ernest, 1894, Photograph, PRG 631/3

Glass plate negative of one of at least two mosaics of photographic portraits created by Adelaide photographer Henry Jones to commemorate an Old Colonists' Banquet. The banquet was organised by merchant Emanuel Solomon at the Adelaide Town Hall on 28 December 1871 to coincide with the 35th anniversary of the founding of the colony of South Australia. This image lacks the subtitle dedication 'Duplicate of one Presented to E. Solomon Esq by H. Jones, Photographer for his liberality in giving the Banquet, Decr 1871' that is included on a different version held by the State Library of South Australia at B 47769. The mosaic contains portraits of 444 men, having none of the 71 portraits added to B 47769 after its initial production. Because of this, PRG 631/3 may represent the version of the mosaic presented to Solomon before his death in October 1873. The dedication may have been removed from the bottom of the mosaic after Solomon's death. Twenty-six of the portraits show the subjects in slightly different poses than depicted in B 47769. Their clothing is identical, indicating that the different portraits were taken at the same sitting at Jones' studio. The glass plate negative has written on it '1894. This copy made by Ernest Gall'. Because this version of the mosaic duplicates many of those on B 47769, only those that are different are linked to this record. To see other pioneers, do an ARCHIVAL NUMBER search on B 47769.
