This footage was shot by KT Buckley. It is part of a collection of home movie footage that is a unique record of one family from 1929 to the 1960s.
Three Buckley brothers – Horace Patrick (HP), Brian and Kethel Timothy (Keth or KT) all took up the hobby of home movies in the late 1920s and early 30s. None of the brothers took up cinematography professionally.
Anthony Buckley, Kethel's son, started shooting 9.5mm in 1950 and 16mm in 1956 and was the only Buckley to enter the professional film industry in 1953.
