Description:
This photograph is one item within a small album containing 97 carte-de-visite photographs. The album appears to have been compiled by Thomas Wingate (1807-1869), sketcher, amateur photographer and army officer. Wingate's pencilled identifications appear on the album page below many of the photographs and the album includes a number of photographs taken by Wingate himself. The album also includes some photographs of Wingate's former fellow officers from the 2nd or Queen's Royal Regiment of Foot in which Wingate served from 1835 to 1846, stationed from 1835 until 1842 in India.
Charlotte Mary Faulkner was born in July 1842, the second daughter of Lieutenant Henry Cole Faulkner and his wife Rosalinda Frances Morewood. Faulkner was one of Wingate's fellow officers in the Queen's Royals and Charlotte was born at Deesa, in the Indian province of Gujarat when her father was stationed there with the regiment. She married Richard James Hartland Mahon, Captain 1st Royal Surrey Militia, in London in April 1872 and died in January 1914 at Tunbridge Wells, Kent. This portrait of Charlotte is one of five photographs of members of the Faulkner family in this photograph album, all identified in the same hand, possibly that of Henry Cole Faulkner himself.
