    Hmm. Not sure it's an exact match: goo.gl/maps/i1Awgssk6Ab83Hcr5

    God bless your eyesight, but, I am not buying the "there is a dog" bit!!!
  • Foxglove said:
    not totally alone, there are three (?) people in the lower fore ground: but I can't see the dog unless the little "spec' to his left is a small one. A wonderful beach scene.
  • Foxglove said:
    if the lemurs view is a accurate, the quaint beach cottages are no more :-(

    DannyM8 Doubting Thomas??? Of course there's a dog. A fox terrier trotting out there in front of the man. You could nearly read his name off his collar - if he had a collar:-)

    The baby's expression is due to the state of the Poole carpet.

    My uncle was a GP, and practised in the same town for all of his career. His claim to fame was he dealt with five generations of the same family - the oldest generation passed away during the early years of his work, and their great great grandchild was born not long before he retired.

    John Spooner Nice story.
  • John Spooner said:
    Is this Mr Whelan senior? - An obituary for draper Mr James Joseph Whelan, aged 91, in the New Ross Standard on 2nd January 1953. In the obituary his son is named as James J Whelan, jnr, and in the list of mourners are James, John, Brendan, Brian, Geraldine and Louise Whelan (grandchildren). The only other relative mentioned are two brothers - Edward, a well-known tenor who had recently died in San Francisco, and William, who died in South Africa in 1950.
  • John Spooner said:
    1911 census - John James Whelan, aged 0, of Main St North, which matches (almost) the address of the original Whelan shop in Wexford (Main Street South). The obituary says that he took on premises in the Bull Ring in 1904, but doesn't say what happened to the Main St shop. I got my John James confused with my James Joseph. To confuse matters further, my great grandfather was a John Joseph, also a draper. I'll stick to 'JJ'. At some point JJ snr moved to Blackrock, Dublin (which is where he died) James Joseph jnr "established and is chairman of the gents' outfitting firm Best in Grafton Street, Westmoreland Street, and O'Connell Street, Dublin." (from J J Whelan snr's obituary).
