What a magnificent photo, Paddy. I'm no expert, but the uniform looks as if it could be from the Boer War..

Re: ANZAC soldiers from Clare in World War 1: NAA site
Thanks, Katrina... the first site is new to me... I was fascinated with the names/aliases... now there are some stories that would be worth the telling I'm sure...
