professional photographer, was working between 1857 and 1861 in Barker Street, Castlemaine, Victoria, where he specialised in taking photographs of people and horses. In 1858 the painter Cuthbert (Ismir) Clarke inserted an enigmatic apology in the Mount Alexander Mail :
To Dr Homagee Bormagee, Photographic Artist, Barker Street. Sir, I beg most sincerely to apologise for the insulting expressions made use of by me toward you on Friday last, which were made under the influence of very great excitement and for which I am heartily sorry, and trusting you will accept this as a sufficient apology, I remain Sir, Yours obediently/ Cuthbert Clarke.
By 1882 Dr Bomagee was thought to be at Liverpool, New South Wales, according to a 'missing friends’ notice in the Victoria Police Gazette . His relatives, who were anxious to contact him, stated that he was originally from Bombay, India – a Parsee who had converted to Roman Catholicism.
