Beautiful banner! Wonder if it still survives...

Not the steps of the Imperial hotel...

It's the courthouse in Waterford:

Streetview does not get very close.

Sheerness was a cargo ship, and was wrecked at the Tuskar Rock in 1927.

These men worked hard for their pay. I'd imagine more than a few of those pictured had an opinion (and probably input) into the general strike we spoke about late last week. Seemingly the NS&FU joined in the 1890s with other Waterford-based union branches to reduce the working-day to 10 hours, and gain an extra few shillings a week for the dock workers also. As with Carol Maddock, I'd love to think the banner survives. Might need the OFarl to contribute on that.... www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/31575454304/ EDIT: Connolly and Larkin and the ITGWU (representing the dock workers) seemingly did not always have a good relationship with Havelock Wilson and the NS&FU (representing the ship workers). Not helped I guess that Wilson's union was UK-based, and that an action by either group would (if not coordinated) affect the workers of the other union. It looks like members of the Dublin NS&FU branch joined the 1913 lockout however - even if the ITGWU seemingly covered their strike pay rather than the NS&FU itself....

Nice shot -- Seen on your photo stream. ( ?² )

12 in the shot which likely means all crew (7 years later) perished. thanks for posting this interesting shot.

Flapweb You're welcome! Very sad - would love to know how many of these men were still part of Copeland crew in 1917... Hate to think of any of them, but especially the smiley chap up the front, drowning in the Irish Sea. Found this great thread that names nine of the crew that were killed when the Copeland sank, and gives other information, like age and family, etc.: www.mercantilemarine.org/archive/index.php/t-4186.html?s=...

Sunk by U-57, this sub was lost in the channel, 3rd August 1918, after she hit a mine. At the time she was under a different commander,Lohs.. usually HMSO states as to whether the captain was lost but this information is not in the Merchant Shipping Losses so I assume the captain of the Copeland survived.. What line was the Copeland ?
