  • Niall McAuley said:
    I don't see either gentleman in the 1911 census (or the 1901 either!), so I suspect they may be visiting from Over the Water.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Here is a Myles Ponsonby of about the right vintage.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    And that Myles had a brother, the Hon Bertie...
  • Niall McAuley said:
    If it is my Myles, he died in action in France, 28th of September 1915. That Bertie lived to be 82.

    GeoHive OS 25" link to Mount Congreve.

St. Nicholas' Church, Galway, 1990

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

  • heady school said:
    I passed by here about 10 days ago. Not much different apart from the influx of crusty types.
  • Robin Parkes said:
    I see the spire is roofed in copper compared to slates in the older photo.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Thanks Robin Parkes Robin. Hadn't noticed that. As usual, once there's a clock, that's my focus. It may be an illness!
  • victor98_2001 said:
    excellent shot
  • oaktree_brian_1976 said:
    Is that the same tree a hundred years later? Not as big as I thought it would be...

"Servant Girls as Spies"

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

  • 56 older comments, and then…
  • derangedlemur said:
    The spy obsession was more from 1912 onwards than 1902, but it may not have been part of that particular bout of hysteria. "Terms of Peace" suggests the end of the Boer war.
  • derangedlemur said:
    In fact it is: One of the posters says "Terms of Boer Treaty"
  • derangedlemur said:
    Presumably referring to the Treaty of Vereeniging, signed on 31 May 1902.
  • billh35 said:
    All talking about "Peace" and "Terms of Peace" which will have been the end of the 2nd Boer War which ended in May 1902. It was an unpopular war which had seen the introduction of things such as concentration camps, "scorched earth" and internment which eradicated dramatically support for the war. An impressive array of newspapers - The Newry Reporter, The Newry Telegraph as well as The Irish Times and Independent, The Weekly Freeman. The Newry Reporter of course still exists but no sign of Newry's third local paper The Newry Standard. The same view today - maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=hill+street+newry&ll=54.1738...

    billh35 And at extreme right on the ground is a poster for the Belfast something - maybe Telegraph?
