Isabel Mary Cole Hamilton born circa 1860 Gortin

Something went amiss with my reply yesterday, and my remarks never got posted.

I possess a copy of a book once owned by W. Cole Hamilton, Isabel's father, in which he (I assume) has written a list of roses, dated 1878. The book also bears the name "Ballitore", a village in County Kildare (but evidently simply meaning it was in his personal library in Ballitore). Checking online sources, William Claude Cole-Hamilton is often listed as residing in Ballitore House, and so it is possible that family baptisms also took place there. However, I am wondering if anyone has a photograph of William Claude Cole Hamilton (1833-1882) and/or his wife.

They lived at Ballitore later I believe.

I have photos which I think are William Claude and Caroline Cole-Hamilton, from the same album mentioned above.
He is described as Capt W C-H and she as Mrs W C-H, the two photos are adjacent in the album.
