    From the Irish Times of March 6, 1909: "Before Mr. H.F. Feeley, Commissioner for Oaths, Mr. James Quinlan was sworn in as High Sherriff of the City of Waterford, and Mr. James Collins as Under-Sherriff." If he was sworn in in March 1909, he must be near the end of his term.

    Man boobs ! It looks like another Quinlan, "M.", the Mayor of Waterford, liked full finery too - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000591753
  • DannyM8 said:
    Sharon Corbet It looks like he was appointed again to the same office in January 1911 as per the Irish Times
  • DannyM8 said:
    It seems clear that he was High Sheriff for 1909 and 1911
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Interesting beachcomber australia (the Quinlan connection rather than the shape made by the chain :) ) Do we think M Quinlan (Mayor) and J Quinlan (Sheriff) were related? Or just lots of Quinlans in that part of the world...?

    The Daly household in the 1901 census.

    Mr. Mayor is 55 and unmarried.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Kathleen, one of the 8 nieces on that return married Thomas Clarke in NY later that year.
  • Suck Diesel said:
    “In Chatham prison Daly becomes friends with Tom Clarke, who would later marry his niece Kathleen and who was a leader of the 1916 Easter Rising. While in prison he claims that he is being poisoned with belladonna which causes an investigation by a commission of inquiry in 1890. It is admitted by prison officials as an error by a warder. A series of articles in the Daily Chronicle in 1894 analyse prison methods. Daly gives an interview to the Chronicle which appears on September 12, 1896”

    “Daly is elected three times as Mayor of Limerick City, from 1899 to 1901. He jointly finances with Patrick McCartan the IRB newspaper Irish Freedom in 1910”

    Suck Diesel Poisoned with belladonna an error by a warder? The mind boggles!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Surprised Mr Daly didn't record any occupation for Kathleen. She had her own successful business by the 1901 census.

    E = Edward
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Edward Walsh was the owner of the Munster Express. Which means that this is probably him and his family in the 1911 Census. (If that is his wife, then her name is Margaret.)
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    We also saw him in this photo
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Perhaps him in the window to the left in this photo

    Bernard Healy Bernard please tell more.
