The following are just a few that we hope you may be able to help us identify. Should you have anything to offer please don't hesitate to contact us using the email address below. |
Do you know where this photo was taken, or the people in it?

Here is a Mawson Collection photo we need identifying (roll your mouse over the thumbnail to veiw a larger image). It is from a series of personal photograph albums, with little additional detail known at this stage. It is believed to be one of a series from the summer of 1906-07, that involved Mawson, his brother, and Taylor. We know Mawson is sitting on the left, Griff Taylor is standing on the left, and William Mawson is probably standing on the right. The other three are unknown. The exact location is also unknown although it is probably on the a road to Charlotte Pass from which it is a nine kilometre walk up a path to the (Mount Kosciusko) summit. We know they made use of a horse and cart. Given this the "who" is of more interest than the "where". |
