    Clearly the date range must be 1914-16.

    "He was a 'doer' more than a writer". A couple of lovely photos of Seán MacDiarmada here in our Googley exhibition on the Signatories of the Proclamation. He looks so different with a beard.
  • O Mac said:
    The buttons, being on his left, would indicate that this photograph is reversed.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The webified version of the 1911 census does a very poor job of transcribing what the Gaeilgeors in the house wrote on the Census Form.

    O Mac Yes! On the companion photo the buttons are on the left, and his tie-pin wiggles the other way - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000029734

Michael O'Hanrahan, head and shoulders portrait

    I think this is Michael in 1901.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    He appears to be wearing shamrock - St. Patrick's Day portrait?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Latest date is 4th May 1916, date of his execution.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    This looks like it was a group shot that was cut down to make a "portrait", that was then later used for a postcard. (Hence the shading out of the guy in front.)
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Here is an archive image of a painted portrait of O'Hanrahan in uniform. I suspect it was painted from this photo. Note on plate reads Miss O'Hanrahan, so it was commissioned by one of his sisters Anna, Mary or Eillen

    O Mac Ashamed to say I missed the handwriting! Mea culpa. I think the G. is a misreading of the E. on the back.

    And date amended to 1906, thanks to your graduation information.

    From Wikipedia - "... On Friday 13 August she was teaching the daughter of Tomas O'Crohan, Cáit, to swim. Despite them only being a few feet from the shore, she and Cáit got into trouble. Cáit's brother, Donal, attempted to save both of them. Another local Peats Tom Ó Cearnaigh came to their aid, but could only save Cáit. Nic Niocaill and Donal drowned. ..."

    Is/was Cáit the daughter and Donal the son of this fellow ? ... [https://www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/24801371188/]

    Recorded as Eveleen Constance Nicolls at her birth.

    Oddly, as Eibhlín Nic Aonguis in the 1901 census, the only one in the household recorded as Gaeilge.

    Record of her death says Evelyn Nicholls, both names wrong, presumably the Jams O'Donnell effect.
