Original title of this photograph was 'Boy on donkey, commissioned by Mrs. Beecher, Castlefarm, Lismore', and the date range was between 1901 and 1954. Research by our Flickr community identified this boy as Edmund Richard Fane Becher of Castle Farm House, Lismore, and narrowed the date to around January 1908. Edmund was about 11 years old when this photograph was taken outside Castle Farm House in Lismore, Waterford. Eight years later, he was a Second Lieutenant fighting with the Royal Munster Fusiliers in World War I. Edmund Becher was wounded in action, and died in France on 19 July 1916. Back home in Lismore, his parents Ella and Edmund, heard the news by telegram two days later.

Featured in the National Library of Ireland's "Photo Detectives" exhibition at the National Photographic Archive, Dublin, 2017-2018.
