ccferrie Thanks for location! Re the brilliantly named De Pews, could this have been taken before 1901 census, given that Harry's only 26. Bridget is a widow and keeping a boarding house in 1901, so might this have been her husband's enterprise?? Just think 26 is young to have your name over the door but could, as ever, be completely wrong! P.S. John Ward is coming through from the other side on your Thomas Curran link!

A poster for the New Town Hall in the window of the bar advertises an event due to take place on 'Monday Sept. 2nd' - since photo can't be earlier than June 1907 (when the monument was unveiled), the photo may have been taken in Summer 1907, 1912 or 1918

The 1798 statue is very fresh looking. It was erected in 1898.

Judging by the small boy pictured, congenital melted face syndrome seems to be more of a risk than consumption.

There's a Thirtieth annual report of the Local Government Board for Ireland, for the year ending 31st March 1902 full of information for Consumptive People and for those who live with them: eppi.dippam.ac.uk/pdf1/13804-1.pdf

"this monument commemorates the gallant men of Wexford who fought for Ireland's freedom in 1798, one of the many uprisings against foreign domination during the centuries of subjection 1169-1921. It is the work of Oliver Sheppard, RHA, and was erected in 1904."
