Photograph album of Adm Sir Leopold George Heath.  Although the spine has disintergrated the album itself appears to be complete.  Some of the pages just have one photograph but most have four photographs all of the uniform carte de viste size.

This is the first page and displays one of the large size photos.

This is the second page and shows an image of Queen Victoria in the large size.

Page 3.  Image I assume of the Princess of Wales with her children.

Page 4 showing images of the Royal family.  This page layout with four photographs per page is the standard layout for most of the album.

Page 5 showing images of the Royal family.  Standard layout with four photographs per page.

Image of a Cathedral. Presumably St Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna.

Louis Napoléon, the Prince Imperial (1856-1879).  He was the only child and heir of Napoleon III, the last Emperor of the French.  He is shown wearing a British uniform, specifically the mess dress of the Royal Artillery, in which he held an honorary rank of Lieutenant.  

His father was dethroned in 1870 and Louis Napoleon moved to England where he trained as a British Army officer.  He was killed during the Anglo-Zulu War while serving with the British Army.  This ended any hopes for the restoration of the Bonaparte dynasty to the French throne.

Vice Adm Joseph Denman (1810-1874) was nine years older than Admiral Sir Leopold George Heath (1817-1907).  It is unclear as to whether they ever sailed together but they were both actively involved in the suppression of slavery.  Joseph is mentioned in the book 'The Royal Navy and the Slavers' by W E F Ward, 1969.  In 1841 he made a bold treaty with King Siaka's people at Gallinas with the result that the slaver's barracoons [slave jails] and their warehouses were destroyed.  This made business more difficult for the slavers.  After this more treaties were signed and more of the slaver's infrastructure was destroyed.
