I removed File:Thomas Rowlandson - Dr O'Meara Preaching - Google Art Project.jpg because (contrary to the information given on the museum site for the image), this image is not of Barry Edward O'Meara. In Britain, a person with a D.D. is addressed as "Dr." Barry Edward O'Meara did not have a D.D., was not in holy orders, did not preach, and did not seek to be appointed bishop. In 1809 he was serving as surgeon in the military, where he would have been addressed as "Mr. O'Meara," as surgeons are addressed in Britain even today.
