    National Library of Ireland on The Commons It's my great-grandfather. Read about him here and here. As a Methodist minister, he changed his 'station' every two years, so he pops up all over the place. Back to Coleraine. The Belfast Newsletter reported on the celebrations in detail, including Coleraine. There are also reports of the extremely lively 'celebrations' in Cork, Limerick and Dublin.

    I wonder if he was around today, 'E. Beyer' might flog his boots on eBay.

    beachcomber australia Well spotted!!! Your eyes are clearly better than mine. However its not Beyer but Dever. Edward Dever is listed in Sands (1888) as a bootmaker trading from 68 Cumberland Street. - www3.photosau.com/CoSSands/scripts/home.asp (see Trades and Professional - European Manufacturers, p. 854) WARNING: The downloads are mighty big (but mighty useful!)

    pellethepoet THAT IS SO B R I L L I A N T !
    I had a hunch you would come up with the answer. Well done!
    It is good when things just . . . dovetail.

    And my corny joke now looks very corny!

    Great sleuthing, pelle and beachcomber!
  • Sugar Sugar Cake Art said:
    I 'think' this bootmaker owned the hotel across the street, known as the "jack's delight" there is an advertisement in the SMH of a bootmaker at that location at that time who owned the 'former hotel', I will try to locate it.

Any knives need sharpening, Mrs?

    It looks like Dundalk courthouse.

    I can't get streetview in the right place but I think this is it: maps.google.ie/maps?q=Dundalk+Courthouse,+Crowe+Street,+D...

    Amazing the way choral festivals are always held near courthouses. It's not like we ever get done for causing a disturbance (somewhat surprisingly, I must admit).
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    derangedlemur Brilliant! I've just been jogging around the square in Google Maps myself (pesky trees), but I think you're absolutely right.
  • DannyM8 said:
    derangedlemur Well done. I think you got it spot on. I saw a portion of this picture posted somewhere recently asking the viewers to speculate as to what was going on. But can't remember where?
