All in all, an outstanding Archive of Early Irish Photographic Material.** George Mansfield was originally an Apothecary or Chemist with a shop at 2 Lower Camden Street, Dublin in 1850. At the same time, his brother had a Fancy Goods Shop at 90 Grafton Street. In 1856, he joined the Dublin Photographic Society. By 1857 he had joined George Yeats at No. 2 Grafton Street, where they were offering a photographic service, as well as selling optical and photographic equipment. During the 1860's George joined his brother at 60 Grafton Street, as Mansfield's Brothers, where they sold general fancy goods, pianos, and other musical instruments and had a photographic studio located on the 1st floor. When the Prince of Wales visited Dublin, for the Opening Ceremony of the Dublin International Exhibition which was held in Earlsfort Terrace, George Mansfield received the commission to photograph him, and by all accounts sales of his carte de visit portrait of the Prince must have been very lucrative. Mansfield's chemical knowledge served him well, when in 1879 he made an important discovery which had the effect of greatly increasing the speed of the newly introduced dry plate process. He appears to have exploited this discovery financially as he was soon to be found living in Morristown Lattin, a large house near Naas. Towards the end of the Century he became a regular contributor to both the British Journal of Photography and Photographic News, the two leading British photographic periodicals at the time. He also immersed himself in the local area and became a Justice of the Peace. In 1898 his name figured on the Grand Jury at the Kildare Assizes, joining such people as Lord Walter Fitzgerald, a son of the Duke of Leinster and other gentry. He was President of the Photographic Society of Ireland in 1890-1892. Literature: Photography in Ireland 19th Century, by Edward Chandler

The following obituary was originally published in the Illustrated Sydney News,10th December 1853 page. 5Snodgrass, Kenneth (1784-1853)The late Colonel Snodgrass was born in the west of Scotland about the year 1784. The Colonel was the eldest son of a Doctor of Divinity of the Church of Scotland, and his mother was the sister of Sir K. Douglass, Baronet. At an early age he entered the army, and distinguished himself as an officer of the 52nd Regiment. His excellent military qualities soon attracted the General in command, and he was on various occasions selected as leader of extraordinary attacks on the French during the war in Spain, and for many years was entrusted with the sole command of Portuguese battalions. In the "Exploits of Wellington," "Maxwell's Life of Wellington," and the "Subaltern," this distinguished officer's courage as victoriously leading the "forlorn hope" at St. Sebastian, is particularly narrated. On that occasion the Colonel, then only a Major, lost 200 men, before he reached the bastions of the fortress. The citadel was taken by Snodgrass and four hundred British soldiers, the French fighting hand to hand. For this act he was presented with a magnificent gold sword and medal. The Colonel was twice wounded, as a recompense for which he enjoyed a considerable pension until his death. When Sir .T. Franklin left Van Diemen's Land, he administered the civil government of that island, and afterwards that of New South Wales, between the departure of Sir Richard Bourke, and the arrival of Sir G. Gipps. His venerable mother only died about a year ago, aged 90; his brother, the late Lieut. Colonel Snodgrass, formerly aide-de-camp to Sir Archibald Campbell, the conqueror of Burmah in 1825, died several years ago. The late Colonel Snodgrass has left two married daughters and several sons, one a major in the 96th regiment in India. He was no less distinguished for his social qualities, his unbounded hospitality, and goodness of heart, than for his military acquirements. He was well known in the colony as Commander of the Forces and originator of the Mounted Police during the desperate bushranging period. The Colonel died on the banks of the Hunter, of gout in the stomach, in October, 1853.
