    Your bang on the money, its Fredrick street north, right outside the entrance of the garden of remembrance today. One of the buildings has a distinct archway on the entrance and the wall surface is different to all the others in the row. This building is still the same today. :) maps.google.ie/maps?q=frederick+street+dublin&hl=en&a...

    PS. I'm a big fan of the collection. Is this collection displayed anywhere I can view them? and can copies be obtained? I've come across a few buildings that have some significance with my family and it would be nice to have a copy. Thanks. :)

    ... Rising of the moon... pikes together. he was a Fenian leader off now to Google as my 1860s/fenian history is very scattered.

    "And come tell me Sean O'Farrell, tell me why you hurry so Hush a bhuachaill, hush and listen and his cheeks were all aglow I bear orders from the captain, get you ready quick and soon For the pikes must be together at the rising of the moon At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon For the pikes must be together at the rising of the moon And come tell me Sean O'Farrell, where the gathering is to be At the old spot by the river quite well known to you and me" m.youtube.com/watch?v=lpiX93rSCoc

    Flickr is sometimes amazing! A very short bio including this photo, via Westmeath Libraries Wikipedia is a bit thin - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Keegan_Casey The "Leo" nickname was evidently a nom de plume when he had his first work published aged 16, according to this Trove 1890 article, which has a few other gems. He died aged 23 in 1870 and 50,000 people attended his funeral - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/164858030
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    In the trove article, it mentions the Mation newspaper . . . John Mitchel, one of the 13 young Irelanders was the editor/maybe owner, I don't exactly recall.

    The Daly household in the 1901 census.

    Mr. Mayor is 55 and unmarried.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Kathleen, one of the 8 nieces on that return married Thomas Clarke in NY later that year.
  • Suck Diesel said:
    “In Chatham prison Daly becomes friends with Tom Clarke, who would later marry his niece Kathleen and who was a leader of the 1916 Easter Rising. While in prison he claims that he is being poisoned with belladonna which causes an investigation by a commission of inquiry in 1890. It is admitted by prison officials as an error by a warder. A series of articles in the Daily Chronicle in 1894 analyse prison methods. Daly gives an interview to the Chronicle which appears on September 12, 1896”

    “Daly is elected three times as Mayor of Limerick City, from 1899 to 1901. He jointly finances with Patrick McCartan the IRB newspaper Irish Freedom in 1910”

    Suck Diesel Poisoned with belladonna an error by a warder? The mind boggles!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Surprised Mr Daly didn't record any occupation for Kathleen. She had her own successful business by the 1901 census.
