    Advert in the Dublin Daily Express 6 August 1896
    BRAY - Springmount Boarding House will re-open August 1. For particulars apply to Mrs Parrack, Springmount Boarding House, Meath Road, Bray.

    John Spooner thank you.

    A 3rd prize winner (one of many) in the Sunlight Soap Competition of February 1897 was Edwin Parrack of Springmount Hotel, Bray, with 1414 coupons. He and his fellow 3rd prize winners won a Rolled Gold Watch. (Flag of Ireland 27 March 1897)


    [The winner won £21 cash with 18,020 coupons, and each of the 10 2nd prize winners (5,484 to 14,183 coupons) won a bicycle.]

    I imagine that to get that many coupons, Sunlight Soap must have been provided in all bathrooms at the Springmount Boarding House.

    Here is Alfred Edward West in the 1911 census at the age of 59, making him approx. 63 in the photo. This would be Kilcroney House. And here is his daughter Hazel West Laverton during the Battle of Pettigo.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The NLI also has one of his letters "to Captain Cecil Fetherstonhaugh describing the situation in Dublin and Co. Wicklow during the Easter Rising". (He was not in favour of it.)
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    He died on Sept. 9th 1919 of a heart attack, while judging at the Navan Horse Show. (According to the Freeman's Journal of 12th Sept 1919)
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Hazel West Laverton got her own newsreel!

    4 September 1915 was a Saturday . . .
