Established in 1859, Dundalgan Press is one the oldest printing works in Ireland. The firm was started by William Tempest, and expanded under his son Henry (1881–1964).

25 August 1908 was a Tuesday ...
Is the child on the left holding a toy DOG? -
Niall McAuley said:
32 Raftices in the 1911 census, but none entered as Mullinavat.
-
Niall McAuley said:
The only ones with small children are the Raftices of Grogan, Ballincrea, about 10 km away.
Bridget, Maggie and Stasia in 1911....
But they would have been aged 5, 1 and zero in 1908, and there were only 3, no sibs in 1911. -
Niall McAuley said:
Part of Mullinavat is in Garrandarragh townland, which has two Raftices in 1911, Mary Anne (67), and in another household, James Cannon, 71.
Given as Mullinavat Town in 1901.
Perhaps this is Mary Anne with a collection of grandchildren? -
Sharon Corbet said:
It could be a Mrs. Raftice with her daughter's kids - with the grandkids having a different surname. For example Catherine Raftice in Ballylusky, which is only a few km from Mullinavat.
