    White, Mary Skirving:Townhall Street, Enniskillen Fancey and Stationory Business 59 in 1911.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Obadiah Ternan is getting on a bit by 1911 though. No sign of T. Brannan, the pawnbroker in either census, though 1901 looks incomplete.
  • derangedlemur said:
    White is in number 4 in 1901, and Ternan and Brannan are either not living on Townhall Street or are on holiday.

    The house is named after Florence Bourchier Wrey, the wife of Sir John Cole, who built the first incarnation of the mansion in the 1720s.

    The fellow standing on the left (not the lurker) has on his right forearm a "four-bar Chevron" which evidently denotes years of overseas service in WW1.

    The Overseas Service Chevron was created by the British Army on 20 December 1917 and was awarded for each year of overseas service. It was retroactive to December 31, 1914, and was eligible for award until May 1, 1920.
    Overseas service was calculated from the day the soldier disembarked from the United Kingdom. A blue chevron was awarded for each 12 months of overseas service after December 31, 1914, with a maximum of 4 blue chevrons (or 5 if the soldier served in Russia after the war). A single red chevron could be awarded for at least a year or more of overseas service before December 31, 1914, and was worn under the blue chevron(s). The Overseas Chevrons were worn on the lower right sleeve of the uniform jacket. Official wear was discontinued in 1922."

    Which might imply the photo is 1918 - 1922 (??)

    The fellow seated second from right (smoking a cigarette with ash on his leg!) has chevrons on his left forearm denoting 'Long Service/Good Conduct Badge'. See the second link above.
    Edit - He also has a medal bar on his chest. No idea what ...

    We have encountered Mr J.S. Coombs the photographer previously. Based in Portland, UK. I wonder if this and another photo are somewhere near Portland ?
