    Illustrated London News - Saturday 07 July 1877 announced the marriage of one of Dr Graves' daughters, but I'd guess not the one pictured
    On the 3rd inst.. at St. Martin’s-in-the-Fields, Captain R. M. Blomfield, R.N., to Rosamund Selina, second daughter of the Right Rev. C. Graves, D.D , Bishop of Limerick.
  • John Spooner said:
    From other wedding notices, children of Dr Graves included
    - eldest son Alfred Percival Graves, HM Inspector of Schoold (Dundee Evening Telegraph - Tuesday 01 December 1891)
    - Robert Windham Graves, Her Majesty's Consul for Kurdistan, youngest son (Clifton Society - Thursday 19 December 1895)

    This one looks more likely (Liverpool Albion - Monday 16 August 1869)
    POWYS—GRAVES—Aug. 7, at the parish church of Kilcrohane, Sneem, county Kerry, Henry L. Powys, captain 52nd Regiment, second son of the Hon. and Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Sodor and Man, to Helena Cecelia Graves, eldest daughter of the Lord Bishop of Limerick.

    Happy new year !
    Usually the "family gatherings" are very static and formal - this one is very dynamic, people with differing outlooks and positions - great choice

    Property Laws: Legally, child abduction was often treated under laws relating to the "stealing" or theft of a person's services or clothing, rather than modern kidnapping frameworks.

    19 August 1864 was a Friday (disappearance) ...

    11 November 1864 was a Friday (printing) ...

    "No. 3 Castle-st." has been rebuilt; I imagine it looked very like the still-standing No. 4, with a street level shop and three floors of house above (?) - maps.app.goo.gl
  • beachcomber australia said:
    The NLI is always amazing! The previous house demolished 1812...
    "View of an old house in Castle Street, corner of Werburgh street, taken down in April, 1812" - the shop says 'COULTER'.
    (I suppose it could have been at one of the other corners, but the fortuitous coincidence is too good to ignore) -

    Was she ever found?
    There appears to be no record, either way

    The upper poster "Lent Preachers" says 1865 on it, and the lower one refers to Sunday next, 19th March. 19th March 1865 was indeed a Sunday.

    Judging by the steps in the background it's from inside looking out, though the steps seem to be slightly different now: goo.gl/maps/8rZJyVidmLxTC7na6 Edit: No it is outside looking in - the angel above the door is on the outside. goo.gl/maps/sQdZfNneDmRAU1wg8
  • derangedlemur said:
    The "steps" are actually that tomb all the way over on the far wall.

    There's a Female Orphan House marked on the 25", at the junction of the NCR and Annamoe Road. The Orphanage and associated church are gone, replaced by the ugly modern Park House.
