  There is an announcement in the Irish Independent of Monday October 15th: MAGNER AND SMYTH—October 9, 1917, at Tramore, by the Rev. T. O'Brien, C.C., Passage-West,- William J. Magner, eldest son of John Magner, Clonmel, to Catherine (Kitty) Smyth, daughter of Mr. Edmund Smyth, Cattle Dealer, Clonmel So it may be William Magner, the original founder of Magners/Bulmers.

  Spot the differences! - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000593236 The mother-in-law (Mrs Smyth?) looks happier in the other photo.

  According to GRO, marriage took place at Tramore RC Church. Celebrant was Thomas O'Brien C.C. Witnesses were John Francis Magner and Mary J Smyth. William J's address was given as Mitchel Street Clonmel. Occupation Merchant.

• Dún Laoghaire Micheál said:

  if John Magner Snr was c.70 in this pic, it would tally with a subsequent Death record in 1926, where he was described as Hotel Proprietor aged 79

Phillis Robinson

from North East Museums

• Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:

  Phillis Robinson appears quite smatly dressed compared with many of the women in this collection. From the account of her crime in the Newcastle Daily Chronicle (25 April 1873) it looks as if she was working as a prostitute. With another woman she approached William Lockwood Hunter in Clayton Street, Newcastle and asked him to stand them a glass of ale. Having also bought them a pie, he was robbed of £14. Phillis had 15 previous court appearances including vagrancy, drunkenness and theft.

• In2Kermit said:

  She looks like she did well for herself, being a prostitute. She's wearing furs!
