    Congratulation for your beautiful Album.
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    The Irish have contributed so much to America. Fought, bled, and died during the Civil War, under both the Union and Confederate Flags. John Mitchel's sons fought during the Civil war, though on the Confederate side. He had his reasons.
  • Nydialy said:
    From the Wikipedia page of Balbriggan, 54 houses and a hosiery factory were destroyed during the "Sack of Balbriggan" on 20 September 1920. The US delegation pledged to rebuild 30 homes and a factory.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Wikipedia says:: On Monday 21 September 1920 during the night the Black and Tans sacked the town of Balbriggan in County Dublin, Ireland. ... On Clonard Street, 20 houses were destroyed. Several pubs were looted and burned including Derham’s Pub and McGowan’s Pub on George’s Hill. Overall a factory, 49 houses and four pubs were burnt down. This is presumably the ruins of the factory.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    On the OSI 25" map (somewhat earlier date) there are no factorys on Clonard Street, but there is a Linen Factory on George's Hill.

    I remember them doing this in the cane fields on Oʻahu.
  • Leonel said:
    That's Called "Zafra" which was done up to 2001 or 2002 at the "ingenio azucarero de Aguadilla" This was just before the Harvest of the canes. This Photos are so nostalgic. The places are all gone. Industrialization and concrete have replaced some of the areas on the pictures. And all the sugar cane factories are all but silenced.
