    I know this area reasonably well, there is a church (painted blue now) that looks a lot like this one, but it is hard to believe they are one and the same? Have a look here from www.geograph.ie/photo/971889

    Of the church in Recess: NIAH says it dates from 1925. The DIA says "repairs" 1948. Maybe it burned down? EDIT: no, different church, see below.

    It’s almost as if he were following the route of the old Clifden line that day

National Bank, Oakey, 1954

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    It was Bundaberg’s most fleeting and eagerly anticipated event—the arrival of the newest monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, on Thursday, March 11, 1954. The Royal Entourage arrived by plane at 11:20 am, and were gone by 1:20 pm, en route to their next regional destination Oakey. Source: www.artsbundaberg.com.au/downloads/file/46/queens-visit-1...

    Some of the other photos in this series appeared in Pix on 25th July, 1942 in a pictorial on the Women's National Emergency Legion, titled 'Australian Girls with US Army'...according to Pix, the girl we see here driving the car was Pat West...though I suspect this might not have been her real name... nla.gov.au/nla.obj-434874248/view - see article on pp. 3-5

    For what it's worth, pics 7 and 8 in this series were taken in Vulture St, South Brisbane, outside Somerville House school. During WW2 the school was evidently used as HQ for the US Army Services of Supply ("SOS") branch...my guess is all the other pics in this series might also have been taken in Brisbane. goo.gl/maps/NHdwEzAjooqoLmxa8 - Google street view showing the Vulture St entrance to Somerville House as it now appears. The Somerville House entrance appears in pic No. 6 in this series. My guess is the middle gate post might have been removed during WW2 to allow trucks etc to use the entrance, or maybe it was a later addition... In the background in the Google street view pic you can see the distinctive tower on the former South Brisbane Town Hall...it appears in pic No. 7 in this series...

    I have to take back my comment above that Pat West might not have been the girl's real name! trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/98259623 - the Brisbane Sunday Mail, 29th June, 1941...pic here of Pat West checking her tickets to the Licensed Victuallers' annual ball...looks to be the same girl... As things transpire, it appears that Pat West was captured by the enemy! trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/203226269 - Brisbane Truth, 8th May, 1949...'Social Jottings'...the 2nd paragraph here suggests she married Bradt M. Cameron of Birmingham, Alabama... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/171959103 - the Brisbane Telegraph, 1st May, 1942...'US Army Pay'...I'd say this is the chap she married...'Second Lieutenant B.M. Cameron of Alabama'...they were evidently married in Brisbane in April 1944...QLD BDMs have Bradt Milroy Cameron ; Patricia Dorothy West...
