Yes, very sad about poor Basil.  :(

Caz, presumably you referring to the photo of Basil being the same as the chap in photo 2?
I think there are differences in the shape of the chin and jawline, but the bottom lip and nose look the same. Difficult to tell whether eyes are the same. I would say there are definite similarities. The moustache has obviously been waxed for the formal photograph.

The chaps all look very dapper.

That's right, second photo.  I'm presuming the identified photo would have been taken about 1914, some seven years later than my photo.  I think there's a good likeness, but I'm not willing to state categorically it's a match.

Could this be Ernest Moon's Wife Emma from Oz.

Just before I head off for some sleep, I'm convinced that these three are a match.

We know for a fact that images 2 and 3 are Basil, and as far as I'm concerned images 1 and 2 are also a match, even to the point I think he's wearing the same hat!
