John MacBride. 7 May 1868 – 5 May 1916 "His red hair and long nose led to him being given the nickname "Foxy Jack"." Much more at - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_MacBride

Here is a titbit of information from 1903 via Trove ... "... When MacBrlde was in an engagement at Modderspruit in October, 1899, a shell burst above a rock behind which he was taking cover. Instinctively he put his hand up to his neck, and a splinter tore an agate from the bezil of his ring. He lost the stone, but the rest of it is now his wife's wedding-ring."

This image and text, along with memorials to the other men executed, appear together in this poster published by Powell Press, of 22 Parliament Street (close to Dublin City Hall). Seemingly there were also postcard versions (which this one may have been). Also published by Powell Press. I haven't found anything more concrete to indicate when and who took the original.

Flickr is sometimes amazing - but alas no more clues to the provenance. Via cellleader

My mother had a great admiration for this man and there was a picture of him in the boys bedroom at home. I had this fellow looking down at me every morning when i woke up!

Hmm, seems the prospects of WWI conscription for cannon-fodder overshadowed the partition of Ireland.

Morning All! Apologies to the Three Marys. I'm being very bold, and sticking my oar in here - but this is only for when you've all finished your eccer on Joseph McGuinness... Our Director here at Library Towers, Sandra Collins, got a request for assistance from Switzerland to help the ETH-Bibliothek. (It's the largest public science and technology library in Switzerland and the main library of ETH Zurich.) They need help to identify locations of photos taken by one Björn Eric Lindroos in 1958. Björn was a keen fisherman, so obviously, he came to fish in Ireland. If any of you recognise the locations of these photos, then just fire your comments in here, and we'll pass them along! (There are good car shots too, for the non-piscine among you) Maybe just say which photo you're identifying using their DOI number (under each photo) so we don't end up confusing them? Or me! blogs.ethz.ch/crowdsourcing/2017/11/20/zum-fischen-nach-i...
