"Church with square tower of rubble masonry" is the original St Finbarre's Cathedral, Cork

    Because of the different family names, is this a grave of disaster victims.

    Here is the reverse view - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000563899 - the "hexagonal spire" must be relatively unusual ...
  • BultacoFan said:
    A quick peruse of the irishgenealogy.ie website suggests that a Corn(elius) Ryan and a Mary Lucey both died in Macroom in 1865 and 1866 respectively. Deaths for 4 people called Denis Manly are also recorded between 1865 and 1887, all in Cork City or county. I think there may be a Cork connection in this photograph.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Strictly speaking, the definition of a hamlet is a small settlement which does NOT have a church.
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    Possible clue for consideration. As www.flickr.com/photos/beachcomberaustralia/ offered- catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000563899/Details#tabnav Notice the Stereo-Pairs have a number in the top-centre "581". What photos do NLI have that have "549", "580", "582", "583", for example. What was the method of travel during the period the photo was taken, with photographic equipment? Horse and buggy? Walking? Horse, only? Next, if you have identified photos "580" and "582" and you make an assumption about speed, amount time to travel, then you could deduce a distance and then make concentric/intersecting rings on a map to determine probable locations of the church for stereo-photo "581".

    This seems to be taken on the Vesey street side of St. Paul's Chapel in lower Manhattan, looking from Broadway west to what is now the World Trade Center site. Until the 30's, there was a building on the west side of the lot, along Church Street, which was the Parish House. That is the building in the back of the picture, and is also pictured here, in the lower right hand corner: 1.bp.blogspot.com/-jbqlV2qgDEA/TeZQd-i5unI/AAAAAAAAIvk/vh... St.Paul's Chapel has been renovated a number of times. From this picture, it looks like the rough brick walls on the building were covered in 1915 with stucco. Here is the same wall more recently: www.flickr.com/photos/emilio_guerra/7306339138/

    Checking the census records for Snoddy, Starkie, Harvey, McNeill would suggest Antrim/Down as the most likely area
  • John Spooner said:
    Looks not unlike St Cadma's, Larne
  • John Spooner said:
    ... although the windows at the side don't match.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    John Spooner There's a very similar Lawrence photo calling it Inver Church, which would back up St. Cedma's.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The DIA mentions the addition of stained glass and memorial windows in the 1879-1881 period.
